On the palate, green herbal notes mingle with pep- permint, almond shells, banana and apple, re- sulting in a tasting ex- perience that is at first sweet, then slightly bit- ter and spicy, with a nutty finish. Balanced and harmonious, Venta del Baron is delightful as part of an elaborate meal, or simply drizzled over crusty artisanal bread. Venta del Baron has consis- tently won gold medals at olive oil competitions, including the New York International Olive Oil Com- petition (NYIOOC) and the Los Angeles Extra Virgin Olive Oil Awards, and this past season has been no exception for excellent re- sults. Venta del Baron earned both best in class and the gold medal this past May in Los Angeles, and ranked seventh in the "World's 50 Best Olive Oils 2016/2017," which is based on the results of the 14 leading interna- tional olive oil competi- tions.
