Nudo - Straight From the Grove

Nudo’s organic olive oil is from the village of Moscufo in Abruzzo. The village lies within the Apruntino-Pescarese DOP region, which means its production and authenticity is under strict legal controls. In fact this was the first ever DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta) oil in Europe, so it pretty much wrote the rule book.

And what the rule book means here is leaving Paolo, who runs the grove, to keep up traditional production methods. These include allowing, twice a year, sheep to graze on the grove; they keep the grass down and fertilise the soil the way nature intended. While the sheep get on with keeping the trees well fed, Paolo has time to keep his pruning skills in tip top condition; this year he came third in the Italian national pruning competition.
