In Depth: Pogliani Select Pantry Essentials

Founded in 2016, Pogliani Select offers a resource for food enthusiasts to taste and connect with Italy’s finest extra virgin olive oils and balsamic vinegars. Our products are sustainably grown, pressed, and bottled on family owned estates.  We specialize in olive oil from Liguria and balsamic from Modena.

Living in the Hudson Valley gives us the opportunity to know where the food we eat comes from: where it is grown, made, and prepared. We share the value of authentic food integrity, with a mission to protect the high standard of Made In Italy with food and farm enthusiasts in the Hudson Valley. The Pogliani Select is the Hudson Valley food enthusiasts’ source for the finest Italian extra virgin and balsamic.

This spring we were fortunate to spend three weeks in Italy visiting our partners, spending time on the orchards.

We criss-crossed four regions all through the lens of grown, produced, cooked, and made in Italy food. We traveled from Limido Comasco to Cinque Terre/Levanto, from San Remo to Imperia, from Monte Contini to Bologna, from Modena to Parma, and finally to the beautiful Como Lake Region. And now we are bringing back tremendous energy to the Hudson Valley and to the exciting farmers market season.

The olives and grapes are grown in Italy, specifically in the regions of Liguria, Modena, and Tuscany.

Walking through the terraced olive orchards in Imperia and savoring the deep flavors of barrel-aged balsamic vinegar in Modena, we grasped the significance of Italian IGP (Indicazione Geografica Protetta) and DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta) certifications.

The IGP and DOP marks ensure the quality and authenticity of Italian food products, preserving their heritage and excellence… similar to the Hudson Valley’s organic farming standards, biodynamic practices, and agricultural heritage. We are proud to sell olive oil and balsamic that meet these standards.

Customers can contact us via email (Walter@wpoglianiltd.com), call ((646) 789-2727), or Instagram DM to order for market pick-up.

We have a following at Hudson Valley farmers markets… our extra virgin olive oils and balsamic are the perfect compliment to the Hudson Valley harvest… the taste says it all.
