Tenute Caracci, a fam­ily-oper­ated farm based in Partanna, Italy, has received a Gold Award at the pres­ti­gious New York International Olive Oil Competition (NYIOOC). The award was given for their extra vir­gin olive oil pro­duced from the Nocellara del Belice cul­ti­var.

Located in the dis­trict of Trapani, 250 meters above sea level, Tenute Caracci has been in oper­a­tion for three gen­er­a­tions. The farm spe­cial­izes in the pro­duc­tion of extra vir­gin olive oil, focus­ing on the Nocellara del Belice vari­ety. This par­tic­u­lar cul­ti­var is known for its dis­tinc­tive green color with golden yel­low reflec­tions, char­ac­ter­is­tics that set it apart from com­peti­tors.

The NYIOOC is the most respected olive oil com­pe­ti­tion glob­ally, rec­og­niz­ing excel­lence in olive oil pro­duc­tion. The Gold Award high­lights Tenute Caracci’s com­mit­ment to qual­ity and their exper­tise in cul­ti­vat­ing the Nocellara del Belice vari­ety.

This achieve­ment under­scores the far­m’s ded­i­ca­tion to main­tain­ing high stan­dards in olive oil pro­duc­tion, con­tribut­ing to Italy’s rep­u­ta­tion as a lead­ing pro­ducer of pre­mium olive oils.

The win­ning brands are pre­sented in the Official Guide and the Olive Oil Times World Ranking.
