The bottle that awakens your palate. Nobile is our early-harvest expression – hand-picked in the cool October dawn when Gentile Nera olives are still young, green, and loaded with the polyphenols that create that signature peppery kick. Cold-pressed within 12 hours of harvest at our family frantoio in Colletorto, Molise, this oil doesn't just flavor your food. It makes you notice your food.
Fourth-generation family precision meets rare Italian terroir. Only 23 farms worldwide cultivate Gentile Nera di Colletorto olives – we're one of them. The Timperio family has been doing this since 1943, and four generations still hand-sort every olive that enters our press. The result? An oil with 0.18% acidity (well below the 0.8% legal limit for "extra virgin") and polyphenol levels that actually deliver health benefits, not just marketing claims.
How to use it: Drizzle raw over grilled fish or roasted vegetables where the heat releases that characteristic peppery note. Finish pasta aglio e olio. Transform simple tomato bruschetta. One 750ml bottle delivers approximately 15 generous dinner salads or 10 pasta dishes for 4 people.
Perfect for olive oil explorers: If you're new to premium EVOO, Nobile shows you what early harvest means – vibrant, grassy, with that signature peppery finish that tells you the polyphenols are actually there. Many Singapore customers use Nobile as their finishing oil and save smoother late-harvest oils for daily cooking.
