Southern Italy
—
Puglia, or Apulia, is one of the Southern regions of Italy. The climate is Mediterranean: hot and sunny summers, with mild rainy winters. This area is the heart of Italian olive oil production, and when you try EVO oil from Apulia it’s almost as if you could taste the product of the region’s wellness, the intensity of its sun, the strength of its wind, the sweet saltiness of the Adriatic sea – this is the richness of that territory. And when this extraordinary setting meets the enormous skills of the producers and millers of Apulia, you are sure to try one of the best expressions of Extra virgin olive oil.

There are 5 PDO / DOP in Puglia (Protected Designation of Origin / Denominazione Origine Protetta) : Dauno, Terra di Bari, Colline di Brindisi, Terra d’Otranto, Terre Tarantine.
Main olive varieties of Puglia are: Coratina, Ogliarola “barese”, Ogliarola “del Gargano”, Ogliarola “salentina”, Peranzana, Cima “di Bitonto”, Cima “di Mola”, Cellina di Nardò. Other varieties are: Moraiolo, Leccino, Carolea, Cipressino, Ciliero, Leccese, Massafrese, Monopolese, Nasuta, Pizzuta.

GangaLupo – Az. Bisceglie

GangaLupo EVOO is a fresh, balsamic and spicy Coratina-based olive oil that combines its classic scents of green vegetables with aromatic and spicy ones.

Giove – Depalo

Due to its typical strong flavour, it is not easy to produce a balanced Coratina-based olive oil. Giove EVOO succeeds in representing the elegant and balanced side of Coratina. Read more on our review!

Blend EVOO by Visconti is a perfect mix of two cultivars which are characteristic of Puglia: the Peranzana and Coratina varieties which together make the final flavour unique. Read our review to obtain a discount.

Unico – Visconti

Unico Visconti is an excellent equilibrist: it manages to well balance the taste between the green vegetable notes and the warm red notes of tomato, pine nuts and black pepper. Read more on our review.
