Bart&#8217;s and Mary&#8217;s enthusiastic daughters were also on hand to help and assist wherever they could. Angelina and Erin are very involved in the family Secolari business. We noted that many people were purchasing Secolari products before they left. We purchased a bottle of Winter Ambrosia Vinegar and a small container of colorful Merlot Salt.<\/p>\n<p>If you will be near the Columbia Mall, be sure to check out this unique store. Taste the extra virgin olive oils, flavored olive oils and vinegars. Secolari is a store to visit and buy yourself a gift or a present to give someone. Gift baskets are also available.
