Each estate contributes its unique terroir, combining to create a symphony of flavors that is both complex and harmonious.

First/Cold Press Excellence

The production process of the Gran Mendoza Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a meticulous journey that ensures the highest quality at every step. The olives are harvested at their peak and immediately subjected to a first cold press on the estate. This method preserves the olives' natural flavors and nutritional integrity, resulting in an oil with less than 0.05% acidity. This low acidity level is a hallmark of superior quality, indicating the freshest and purest olive oil available.
