Oliviers & Co Sabino Leone Olive Oil

Tasting Notes of the Curator

This Grand Cru olive oil is an exceptional expression of terroir and family tradition. Produced from 100% Coratina olives crushed on the same day of harvest, it reveals remarkable freshness and depth. On the nose, it opens with aromas of green almond, ripe tomato, and aromatic herbs. On the palate, it is lively and grassy, with bold vegetal notes that unfold into balanced bitterness and a peppery finish. The texture is full yet refined, showcasing the Coratina variety’s distinctive strength. The Sabino Leone oil’s exceptional quality is reflected in its remarkably low acidity level of 0.21% — far exceeding extra virgin standards — and its rich polyphenol content of 612 mg/kg, ensuring both powerful flavor and antioxidant benefits.

The Pride of Puglia

For generations, the Leone family has cultivated their olive groves in Canosa di Puglia, Italy, blending tradition with modern precision. This Grand Cru oil is produced within hours of harvest, cold-pressed to preserve the olive’s natural aromas and nutrients. Its gold medal recognition at the 2025 NY World Olive Oil Competition stands as testament to that dedication — celebrating not only craftsmanship, but the distinct soul of Puglia itself. Every bottle captures centuries of heritage, bottled with freshness, finesse, and a taste of Italy’s southern sun

Storage Instructions

Store in a cool, dark place away from sunlight and heat, ideally between 14°C and 18°C. Always reseal tightly after use to prevent air exposure, which can oxidize the oil and dull its aroma. Properly stored, this olive oil will maintain its grassy freshness, nutritional integrity, and safety for extended enjoyment.
