Taster's Notes & Ingredients
Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Garden tomato, with a hint of ripening almonds, and slight peppery finish due to the high levels of polyphenol antioxidants.
Champagne Mimosa Vinegar - A true "champagne vinegar", which starts with a hint of juicy citrus, and finishes with a clean balanced taste. Contains no alcohol.
Fig Balsamic - If you like balsamic vinegar, you'll love this organic vinegar that has a nice hint of figs, with a traditional balsamic smooth finish.
Blackberry Balsamic - This organic vinegar is made with both blackberries and grapes, and can be incorporated into any meal. It's perfect for green salads packed with nuts, fruit and cheese.
Taste of ATHENS: Oregano, thyme, basil, marjoram, minced onion, minced garlic, black ground pepper

Oh, and not only will this exquisite olive oil pop your socks off, the estate is beautiful, romantic, full of rolling hills and jaw-dropping vistas.
The Vineyard Organic Farm
Nestled on a twenty acre natural landscape, is the two acre organic farm known as "The Vineyard". Their wonderful micro climate, in the California Central Coast, allows them to grow a wide variety of fruits, herbs, and vegetables. All work to create the vinegars is done by hand.
The vinegars start with hand-selected, hand-picked fruits, herbs, and vegetables grown on the organic farm. The fruits and herbs are placed in small vats along with an organic vinegar.

"Athens", Wonderful seasoning with many possibilities
ATHENS seasoning blend is fantastic, I roasted flavor bombs tomatoes, early harvest extra virgin olive oil with the Athens seasoning and garlic and served with toasted French bread sliced at my dinner party as an appetizer and everyone raved about it.

I’ve been to olive oil manufacturers in Europe and this olive oil tastes just like it should, fresh with a kick at the end means it’s really good quality. I was so pleasantly surprised when I tasted it for the first time and it was like I was back in an olive grove in grease tasting olive oil that had been pressed right in front of me. I love that I can get it locally in Holly Springs, NC, at the farmer’s market or hand-delivered to my door. I always keep it on hand and use it for salads, bread, pasta etc. Good oils like this are so important to being healthy.
