“From the moment I stepped foot on this property, I felt that I needed to restore its soul. In the process, it ended up restoring mine.”

— Paul Cappelli, Founder

Olive oil from Puglia is some of the world’s most palatable; it is highly digestible and rich in vitamins. Villa Cappelli Extra Virgin Olive Oil, handcrafted from my groves along the ancient Roman highway, Via Appia, is unfiltered, first cold-pressed — at traditional stone mills — using a blend of Coratina and Nostrana olives. Its buttery, grassy flavor — with that distinctive “Puglia pinch” spicy finish — is very low in acidity.


All Villa Cappelli products use only the finest local ingredients and are 100% natural.
