Centennial olive trees and artisanal production
Quality
Extra Virgin.
Olives
Centenary olive trees located in the old vineyard plots of Aroa Bodegas. They are located in three places in the Yerri Valley: Zurukoain, where the olive trees are over 200 years old, and Lacar and Mañeru, where they were planted around a century ago. The configuration of these olive groves is the traditional mixed cultivation with vineyards, in this case with goblet-trained Garnacha vines, also very old. The cultivation is organic.
Harvest
A manual harvest is carried out in 25 kg boxes. In 2020, it took place between November 27 and December 1, when the fruit was ripe enough to obtain a very pleasing oil on the palate.
Olive type
Arroniz.
