Tasting Lindsay Olives’ 2015 Olio Nuovo – from Corning California
In this episode of the Olive Fantastic Video Blog, I’m tasting Olio Nuovo from Lindsay Olives (Bell Carter), located in Corning California. We also receive a great marketing lesson in packaging and branding. They are from my hometown!

Date Harvested: October 2015
Bottle Size/Format: 500ML/Round/Antique Green/ROPP Cap + Pour-Spout Insert

Nose: 2 out of 3 – Full of fruit, with great fresh notes of ripe olive, grapes and pear.
Fruitiness: 2 out of 3 – Really nice components of ripe green grape and ripe pear.
