Az. Agr. MALGIERI TARQUINIO

Az. Agr. Malgieri Tarquinio operates in Ascoli Satriano, within Foggia's olive-growing province, where the Dauno DOP denomination stretches across sixty-one municipalities of the Tavoliere. The estate focuses on extra virgin olive oil, recognizable by its green-to-yellow hue and a distinct profile: a fruity note on the nose, followed by hints of pungency and bitterness that define its vibrancy. This profile is no accident. It arises from the interplay between the Tavoliere terroir—the vast, warm, and luminous Foggia plain—and the harvesting choices, which largely determine the oil's sensory identity at the moment of milling. Anticipating or delaying the harvest shifts the balance between bitter and sweet, and Malgieri Tarquinio steers this decision towards an oil with a pronounced rather than softened character. The connection to Dauno thus remains twofold: on one hand, the framework of the regulations that define its area, and on the other, the agricultural practice that, vintage after vintage, translates these rules into a precise flavor.
