This year's olive oil is bold and asserive, and a Gold medal winner at the 2007 Yolo County Olive Oil Tasting. Reflective of the Tuscan roots - now with some added Sicilian ones, the olive oil is a a deep green color with a nose of grass and green olive. The olive oil is smooth and silky on the lips; its flavors run deep with ripe and green fruit. It rolls through these flavors with hint of olive sweetness, and without any touch of bitterness usually associated with "green" Tuscans - I attribute this to the addition of the Belice di Nocellara, a varietal from western Sicily. It has tha marvelous peppery and pungent finish that is expected of such youthful and fresh olive oil. 2006 GOLD MEDAL WINNER and Four-Time Gold Medal Winner at the Los Angeles County Fair's Olive Oils of the World Competition. 2006 GOLD MEDAL WINNER YOLO COUNTY FAIR and SAN DIEGO WINE & FOOD COMPETITION Storm Olive Ranch Estate extra virgin olive oil comes from an historic property located in a remote area on the eastern slopes of the Napa Valley.

Balsamics aged 20 years or more becomes denser, their fragrance and flavour are enriched, and it can be appreciated to the full on flakes of Parmesan cheese, on strawberries or on ice cream, or sipped at the end of a meal. This Balsamic Condimento was bottled to celebrate the 30th anniversary of la Vecchia's balsamic production for commercial sale, and it can trace its roots back thirty years. It is not as thick as some much younger condimentos, and this indicates a great degree of skill on the part of the producers. The must was not cooked down as much as in the case of many condimentos, allowing for a greater expression of fruit flavors. It has a backward nose that reveals only a whiff of caramelised sugar and acid. The flavor opens with woody notes and hints of raisin before blossoming into a very complex fruit filled mid palate with a cascade of blackberry and black cherry notes. It moves quickly to a nice nutty finish with a pleasant amount of back-of-the-palate acid. Leaning slightly to the acid as with most La Vecchia Dispensa Balsamics, we found this to be an exceptional "sipper", and one that would go well with duck, venison, and game birds. [+]
