Tuscany, Italy — D’Uliva di RP has been awarded a Gold at the 2026 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition for the D’Uliva brand.

"What a year — tough, demanding, and absolutely worth it. We’re proud to celebrate an exceptional EVOO harvest, crowned by remarkably high polyphenols that have taken the quality to an even higher level. The response from our clients has been outstanding, and hearing their enthusiasm has made every long day and hard decision feel completely justified. Winning Gold is the perfect recognition of the work, the passion, and the commitment behind every bottle.," said Rita Guastella, Owner at D’Uliva di RP.

D’Uliva di RP is an extra virgin olive oil of medium intensity. Made from a blend of Tuscan cultivars—Leccino, Moraiolo, Pendolino and Frantoio—D’Uliva is distinguished by ripe olive character and a buttery texture, lifted by leafy aromatics and accents of pink pepper and tea.
