A movement
for the finest oil

Olio Nuovo Days began with a conviction: that the first oil of the harvest – vivid, fleeting, alive – deserves the same reverence the world gives to fine wine.

The beginning

From a single tasting to a global movement. What began as a celebration of the new oil in Paris has grown into two international competitions and a year-round community. Founded in 2016 to honor Extra Virgin Olive Oil – the finest expression of olive oil – OLIO NUOVO has become both a movement and a competition, renowned for its prestigious, high-end selection. Today, it also stands out in the EVOO World Ranking, confirming its role as a benchmark in the world of olive oil. Producers from both hemispheres present their finest oils to an expert jury, and a wider public discovers a culture of taste, health and craft.
