Basile Ludovico

Basile Ludovico cultivates the hills around Pescara, within the Aprutino Pescarese DOP, an olive oil denomination encompassing forty-six municipalities. The company's work focuses entirely on extra virgin olive oil: bottles whose color varies from brilliant green to pale gold depending on the harvest time, a direct indicator of the chosen ripeness level for the fruit. The resulting profile is measured. A medium-low fruitiness is balanced with herbaceous notes, without seeking demonstrative intensity. This character is shaped by the microclimate of the slopes overlooking the Adriatic and by a selection carried out at the optimal point of ripeness, where the olive retains finesse without becoming aggressive. This strip of Abruzzo, between the coast and the internal relief, is reflected in the oil as a territorial imprint: the proximity of the sea and the exposure of the slopes yield a balanced extra virgin olive oil, designed to accompany rather than dominate, consistent with the Pescara hilly area from which it originates.
