ESTATE EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
The Estate: John Rea, Our Master Blender and Olive Oil Sommelier, is proud to introduce our 100% Estate-Grown Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Our 2025-2026 Estate EVOO was made from our two medium-density groves, composed of Arbosana and Koroneiki olives. We started this year’s harvest at the ideal time while the olives were mostly green with a good mix of purple. The Process: We harvested 44 tons of olives mechanically from our groves using our Oxbo Harvest Machine on January 6th, 7th and 14th of 2026, and milled within two hours of harvest. This year we made a total of 4,391 liters of EVOO. The olives were crushed using our Olivemax 33 mill with an average malaxation time of 34 minutes at an average temperature of 78 degrees Fahrenheit. Sometimes called the "king of olives," the Greek Koroneiki olive is renowned for its unusually high yield of oil (often up to a third of the olives' weight is oil) and its high polyphenol and antioxidant values. Arbosana trees are known for their resilience
