Terre Aurunche
Olive oil · PDO · 17 municipalities
Recognised under European protection since 2006, the Terre Aurunche DOP designates a specific extra virgin olive oil originating from the Campania region. What distinguishes this denomination from its regional neighbours is its highly concentrated scale; while the official production zone spans 17 municipalities, including Caianello and Carinola, the entire registry contains only eight verified producers. Monitored by the Consorzio di tutela olio extravergine di oliva Terre Aurunche D.O.P., this small group of growers maintains the strict standards of the geographic boundary, making this micro-origin one of the most exclusive and tightly restricted olive oil appellations in Campania.
