DeCarlo Tenuta Arcamone Extra Virgin Olive Oil 500ml

DeCarlo Tenuta Arcamone is a bold, uncompromising expression of southern Italy at its most powerful — a premium, award-winning organic extra virgin olive oil crafted exclusively from Coratina olives grown in the sun-drenched heart of Puglia. This is not an oil that whispers; it speaks with authority. Born from a single estate and a single cultivar, Tenuta Arcamone captures the raw energy of Coratina — a variety revered for its naturally high polyphenol content, structure and longevity. Meticulous organic farming, early harvesting and precision milling ensure every drop delivers intensity, balance and unmistakable character, making this oil a reference point for lovers of robust, high-phenolic EVOO.

Tasting Profile

Aroma
Elegant yet commanding, the nose opens with layered vegetal aromas — fresh field herbs, wild chicory and cut grass — followed by lifted notes of mint, rosemary and sage. Subtle hints of green almond and artichoke add depth and complexity, creating a beautifully composed aromatic profile.

Flavour
On the palate, Tenuta Arcamone is structured, vibrant and full of personality. A pronounced yet refined bitterness builds steadily, perfectly balanced by a long, assertive peppery finish that lingers at the back of the throat — the unmistakable signature of a high-polyphenol Coratina oil. Powerful, but never aggressive, this is balance through strength.

Colour & Texture
Visually striking, it shows a limpid, intense golden-yellow hue with delicate green reflections. The mouthfeel is rich and full, reinforcing its sense of depth and seriousness.

Food Pairing

Tenuta Arcamone is a finishing oil made for confident cooking — designed to elevate dishes with structure and substance rather than disappear into them. Its bold profile enhances robust ingredients and brings clarity and lift to rich flavours.

Perfect pairings include:

• Vegetables: Chargrilled or roasted vegetables, porcini mushrooms, vegetable gratins, tomato salads
• Soups & Legumes: Mixed pulse soups, minestrone, hearty vegetable soups, puréed beans
• Meat & Fish: Baked tuna, grilled poultry, roast rabbit, salmon salads, and red meat including Florentine steak
• Pasta & Grains: Artichoke risotto, fresh pasta, boiled beans, grilled potatoes
• Cheese & Bread: Fresh string cheeses or simply poured generously over exceptional bread

How to Use

This is an oil best enjoyed raw or as a finishing touch — where its aromatic complexity and health-giving polyphenols can truly shine. Heat will mute its voice; drizzle it last and let it speak.

DeCarlo Tenuta Arcamone is Coratina in its purest, most confident form — intense, elegant and unapologetically southern Italian.
