For hotel owner Natalino Gisonna, wine and olive oil are two core parts of his culture and origins and, to this day, his family still produce their own excellent wine and oil in his home region of Calabria, in the south of Italy. In order to transmit this integral part of his life and homeland to his guests, in every luxury suite he has placed bottles of Ferrocinto, a wine produced by one of his close childhood friends, ready for you to taste along with a selection of olive oils from all over Italy.
An indispensable ingredient of the Mediterranean diet, for Natalino olive oil sparks memories of his childhood when he would savour a mid-morning snack of freshly-baked bread drenched in vibrant green oil from the family land.
We hope that tasting and savouring these fundamental flavors of Italy will create the same evocative and lasting memories on your palate and soul, long after you leave Rome.
