Product details
Appellation:
The olive trees grow high up on the steep banks of the Douro Valley amongst the vines and are organically grown without the use of any pesticides. The trees flourish in the Douro valley's microclimate and during October the red ripe olives are manually harvested with care and attention. After harvest La Rosa's Olive Oil is made using a process called cold extraction during which the temperature is maintained at 28C. The olives are washed, crushed, passed through a continuous press and finally filtered to produce a rich and intensely coloured extra virgin olive oil with an acidity of 0.3%.
