Olio della Donna Sanino Tuscan Field Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil 2024

Invite the flavors and aromas of Italy into your home kitchen with Olio della Donna Sanino Tuscan Field Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil. This creation from Elaine Trigiani (best known from Sàgona) combines the best olive farming techniques with avant-garde milling equipment and expert millers.

Sanino is a field blend from an ancient grove at Impruneta, prevalently Morcone olives along with Frantoio and Moraiolo. The rare Morecone olives give it a rounded body resulting in a more delicate perception of the classic bitterness present in all high quality olive oils. 

For comparison, Sanino is a bit softer (less intense) than Piero.

Ideas!

- with tomatoes cucumbers feta and mint as a salad

- for crostini with tomatoes and basil on fettunta / toast rubbed with garlic and then smothered in olive oil

 - it’s really good on pizza

- with zucchini to use on crostini or on pasta or as a side dish

An homage to Piero Dogolini (son of Sanino) a self-sufficient Tuscan farmer from the last century who made his olive oil just like we do. He pruned carefully, and farmed organically to help the trees produce good fruit. He then took his olives to a technologically advanced mill because he believed that was the best way to make the best-tasting olive oil that keeps its flavor (and health benefits) the longest. Thanks, Piero!
