An intense, elegant volcanic olive oil​

Born on the fertile slopes of Monte Vulture, an ancient Basilicata volcano, this 100% Peranzana extra virgin olive oil draws its richness from a unique mineral terroir and exceptional microclimate.​ On the nose, a surprisingly aromatic bouquet of ripe banana, coffee and avocado. On the palate, the magic happens with notes of roasted hazelnut, dried grass, a silky texture, a very light bitterness and a typically Italian peppery finish. ​An oil with character, pure and vibrant, reflecting volcanic soil and ancestral know-how.​

Did you know? The legal acidity level for extra virgin olive oil must be below 0.8%. This Grand Cru from Oliviers&Co far exceeds that standard with an exceptionally low level of 0.2%. Our quality standards and traceability ensure a fresher, more aromatic olive oil with preserved nutritional benefits. The polyphenol level at bottling is 554 mg/kg.

Frantoiani del Vulture — Guardians of an Oil Born from Fire and Time

Nestled in the heart of Basilicata, on the volcanic lands of Monte Vulture, Frantoiani del Vulture has brought together a collective of passionate millers and olive growers since 2009. Heirs to ancestral expertise passed down for over a century, they cultivate excellence in every drop of oil. The region’s unique volcanic soil enriches the olives with precious nutrients and minerals, giving the oil exceptional organoleptic qualities. The Peranzana olive is naturally rich in polyphenols and complex aromas.

Here, everything is done with deep respect for tradition: hand-harvesting, immediate cold extraction, and expert craftsmanship at every step to preserve the oil’s full nutritional and taste benefits.

Led by brothers Gennaro and Vincenzo, Frantoiani del Vulture blends tradition and modernity to create an intense, pure, and authentic extra virgin olive oil. A true reflection of its land, its roots, and its culture.

Please note: although the oil meets PDO standards, we cannot officially claim the designation on the label as it is bottled in Haute Provence.
