Claudio Vignoli Featured on DeliveryRank

In a thoughtful conversation with editor Sarah Kirton, Claudio opened up about his 25+ year journey as an Oleologist, Olive Oil Sommelier, and Master Miller. He shared the story of how a supermarket bottle of olive oil led him into a lifelong pursuit of excellence—and eventually to the creation of Vignoli Food Anthology.
Claudio spoke passionately about the craft of producing truly exceptional extra virgin olive oil, the balance of tradition and technology, and the joy of bringing Italy’s rich culinary heritage to tables around the world.

His unique approach—selecting the best olives each season from Tuscany, Puglia, and Sicily, and overseeing every step of production—embodies his mission: to create food that connects people through authenticity and quality.
One of our favorite moments? When asked who he'd invite to dinner, Claudio chose Leonardo da Vinci—and planned a menu as refined and honest as the oils he creates.
