Extra Virgin Olive Oil Italy, Spain, France and California
2019 Harvest…. Coming Soon
The 2019 Harvest in Italy was a mixed bag. In the south De Carlo had a much better harvest than in 18. In Tuscany the groves at higher elevations dealt with unusually cold weather in the spring which led to some crop failures. In the Veneto which is in extreme northern Italy they had a fantastic harvest. In Spain everything was perfect they are going to have a great harvest this year.
Prices are probably going to go up this year due to the government raising duties on specialty foods from Europe. Do yourself a favor and write to your congressman and senator and complain. Foods from Europe are healthy and delicious. They are also sustainable like their tinned seafood which is taking the US by storm.
Our selection from the 2018 Harvest that are in stock are still beautiful however inventories are thinning down… But our 3 bottle purchase with free freight is still the best deal to be found in the country.
Here is a suggestion on how to structure your 3 bottle purchase.
-
If you are on a strict budget the Spanish Olive Oils from Oleoestepa and the Fresh Harvest are incredible bargains. Also the De Carlo Classico in the 750 ml. Bottle and 1 Liter Tin translate to under $20 if they were in a 500 ml. portion.
-
If the sky’s the limit buy a Delicate or Light Oil, a Medium Fruit and an Intense Olive Oil for finishing meats and all manner of foods to go with it. This will give you lots of flexibility and remember pour olive oil on just about everything. It is just like salt and pepper and bitters in the sense that olive oil is a flavor enhancer.

We made it really easy to shop the Olive Oils on the site. Just scroll down and click on any of the product images and it will take you straight to the shopping site where there is a good description of each of the Olive Oils. Also we only do 3 bottle purchases but the shipping is free!
Delicate & Light Fruit Olive Oils…
Just because they are little lighter doesn’t mean they don’t have lots of flavor. For me Delicate and Light are more about the mouth feel. These are great all round oils in the kitchen. Cook with it and pour Olive Oil on just about everything you eat.

This is a total crowd pleaser. When we sample this at events, more clients will fork over $30 for this oil than any other olive oil in the book due to its pretty mouthfeel and ethereal flavors. This is a total rarity usually one only finds the Arbequina from this producer.


Intense Fruit…
These oils are big, spicy and pungent. The best chefs in the world use them as finishing sauces. It is their secret weapon. It is like adding the right bitters to a a cocktail. The flavor components and the fats in olive oil combine with the foods to create something so much more delicious. Don’t mind the prices as a little goes a long way.

This is a really great producer from Tuscany. Villa Magra is their core offering and it is worth every penny. When the harvest is perfect there is one section of the grove that is really special and they will produce a limited edition called … Grand Cru… only olive oil I have ever tasted that is worth $50.
Shopping Tips… the Bargains
Any of the bottles priced from $15.99-$29 are just super values especially the Giuliana Fresh Spanish Harvest which we believe is the best value in real Ultra-Premium Olive Oil on the planet. Paniole and De Carlo Classico come in 750 ml. bottles rather than the standard 500 ml. size. The Classico also comes in a 1 Liter Tin. Portion wise this costs them out at less than $20 if they were in a half liter portion.
Bonamini, Alberto Romano, Oleoestepa (Egregio, and Virgin), Franci Villa Magra, La Cultivada, De Carlo Torre Di Mossa and Felice Garibaldi at $20-$29 are ridiculous bargains and are as good as any of the $30+ bottles.
The $30+ bottles in their own right are values in the sense that you find these in very few retailers and if you do they are much more expensive, They are worth the money due to the scarcity in the varietals as well as the terroir and the producers are an elite group. Plus we always tell you the harvest date, bottle sizes.
Have fun shopping and if you have questions don’t be afraid to pick op the phone or send us a text.
