DeCarlo Puglia Olio Amore PGI Extra Virgin Olive Oil 500ml

DeCarlo Olio di Puglia IGP is a refined and effortlessly elegant expression of southern Italy — a medium-light fruity extra virgin olive oil that captures the warmth, balance and everyday brilliance of Puglia. Crafted under the IGP designation, this oil reflects both place and tradition, combining careful harvesting with precise milling to deliver an EVOO that is approachable yet quietly complex. It is the kind of oil that slips seamlessly into daily cooking, elevating dishes without ever overwhelming them — polished, harmonious and unmistakably Italian.

Tasting Profile

Aroma
Fresh and inviting from the first pour, the nose opens with clean, green aromas of freshly cut grass and olive leaf, followed by gentle herbal notes of wild chicory and rosemary. Subtle layers of artichoke and green almond add depth and finesse, creating a beautifully balanced and elegant aromatic profile.

Flavour
On the palate, DeCarlo Olio di Puglia IGP is soft, smooth and beautifully composed. Notes of fresh herbs, green almond and crisp lettuce unfold gently, leading into a delicate yet persistent bitterness and peppery finish that provides structure without intensity. The mouthfeel is velvety and rounded, making it exceptionally easy to use across a wide range of dishes.

Food Pairing

This is a highly versatile finishing oil, designed to enhance rather than dominate. Its balanced character makes it a natural choice for lighter, fresher cuisine while still holding its own with more substantial plates.

Ideal pairings include:

• Seafood: Boiled, baked or grilled fish, shellfish, seafood carpaccio — where it lifts natural sweetness without masking flavour
• Vegetables & Salads: Fresh salads, raw or boiled vegetables, legume soups and purées
• Meats: Grilled or roasted meats, veal or beef carpaccio
• Starters & First Courses: Bruschetta, caprese salad, pizza, rice dishes and hearty yet elegant pasta recipes

How to Use

Best enjoyed raw or added at the final moment, this oil rewards simplicity. A finishing drizzle is all that’s needed to bring brightness, balance and an unmistakable touch of Puglia to the plate — while preserving its natural aromas and health-giving properties.

DeCarlo Olio di Puglia IGP is everyday excellence: gentle, expressive and endlessly versatile — a true reflection of Puglia’s sun-kissed landscapes and the De Carlo family’s dedication to refined olive oil craftsmanship.
