I already adore DaVero olive oil like you wouldn’t believe (so does Bruce Hill—it’s what he puts on the soft-serve ice cream at Pizzeria Picco), so my ears definitely pricked up over this upcoming dinner at COCO5OO: ~FESTA DELL'OLIO NUOVO~, a five-course dinner featuring just-pressed virgin oil from DaVero's Dry Creek Estate in Healdsburg, Sonoma.
"In Italy, 'olio nuovo' is a coveted treat, with strong, feisty flavors that are well suited to winter dishes. Those of you who have had ours before know that it's something special and short-lived; we offer it only in the winter months. While we use it on just everything we eat, we may be a bit extreme. But we're sure you'll find that it's an extraordinary addition to winter dishes...there's simply nothing better!"—Ridgely Evers and Colleen McGlynn, DaVero Olive Oil.
