Certain goals that arrive suddenly, but in reality are the fruit of years of silent, constant, deep-rooted work.
Today we want to share with you some news that fills us with pride: for the first time , our Ogliarola Garganica extra virgin olive oil has been included in the Gambero Rosso 2025 Guide to Italian Oils , with the prestigious Two Leaves recognition.
A debut that is worth double, because it rewards not only the quality of a product, but also the profound identity it brings with it: the history of our Gargano, of its centuries-old olive trees and of our daily commitment to protecting them.
An oil that tells the story of the territory
Gambero Rosso describes it like this:
“On the palate artichoke, lettuce, apple, almond, green.”
Vegetal, fresh, elegant notes. Fragrances that recall the Apulian countryside, freshly crushed leaves, hand-picked fruit.
It is the essence of the Ogliarola Garganica cultivar, a native variety of our promontory that gives life to a harmonious, balanced oil, with an aromatic charge capable of surprising even the most expert palates.
Behind every drop: centuries-old olive trees and peasant hands
Our Ogliarola comes from olive trees that have survived the centuries. Some have been there since before we were born, even before our grandparents.
We cold-mill within a few hours, because every detail makes the difference. And we do it in a unique area: between the Adriatic Sea and the Umbra Forest, where nature still dictates the rhythm of the seasons.
An acknowledgement that is just the beginning
Being listed in the Gambero Rosso Guide is a huge satisfaction. But for us it is not a point of arrival. It is rather an encouragement to continue doing things as we know how: with authenticity, passion and respect for the land.
Thanks to those who support us, choose us and tell us every day. This goal is also yours.
