Peranzana is the undisputed star of Mediterranean fine dining among extra virgin olive oils. It is a single-varietal olive oil with a gentle character, able to enhance the most delicate ingredients with balance and refined sensory elegance. A curious detail? The Peranzana cultivar is a prized olive variety originally from Provence, introduced to Puglia around the 18th century. Its very name is a dialectal variation of “Provenzale.”
Peranzana extra virgin olive oil is part of the Le Monocultivar line, a collection that celebrates the purity of individual Apulian cultivars, enhancing their most authentic sensory characteristics through careful and selective production.
Peranzana stands out for its harmonious fruitiness, with a delicate and pleasantly smooth character.
With Le Monocultivar, we tell the story of the richness of Apulian olive growing through a careful process designed to preserve each cultivar’s identity.

The sensory profile of Peranzana extra virgin olive oil is defined by a light-to-medium fruitiness, with a remarkable balance between sweetness, bitterness, and pungency, without any of these elements being overpowering.
On the nose, it reveals notes of fresh grass, green leaves, almond, and a hint of ripe tomato, reflecting its natural and territorial identity. On the palate, it offers a smooth structure that never overwhelms the dish, but instead enhances it with elegance.
