EXTRA-VIRGIN OLIVE OIL "TENUTA TORRE DI MOSSA"
DOP TERRA DI BARI - BITONTO
Torre di Mossa is the De Carlo family’s "historical" farm, where this extra-virgin olive oil was created, completely reflecting our idea of quality.
The cultivar is Coratina, the leading oil of the area. Its limited production, along with the awards and prizes it has received, make it a prestigious product that tends to run out very quickly.
You are advised to book well in advance.
