Veneto Valpolicella

Olive oil · PDO · 406 municipalities

While neighboring Italian olive oil denominations support active commercial pressing, the Veneto Valpolicella DOP presents a unique paradox. Despite a vast designated geographic footprint that spans 406 northern municipalities, including Abano Terme, this protected olive oil origin currently registers zero verified producers. Recognised under European Union law since the year 2000, this specific designation protects extra virgin olive oil originating from the Veneto region. However, unlike its highly active neighboring oil regions, it exists solely as a legal definition without any certified commercial output, making it an entirely dormant denomination within the regional olive-growing landscape.
