Several winners of the 2018 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition reached this goal after a successful history of quality which continues thanks to passion, dedication and determination. Among them is Massimiliano ‘the Iron Man’ D’Addario, who received two Gold Awards, one with the blend Oliomania and the third one in a row with his monocultivar of Dritta L’uomo di Ferro.

We are delighted about this award, which is a further acknowledgment of our work,” said the young but experienced producer from Pianella, Abruzzo. “The NYIOOC is a reference event for the world olive sector and I will manage to attend the next edition to receive the award in person,” he added, clarifying that the great products were obtained thanks to a constant activity of irrigation of his biodynamic groves during summer and special precautions taken in the mill.
