Vale de Arca - Gourmet
This year’s Gourmet features a mild fruity green olive fragrance with strong hints of green olive leaves, grass and green almond bark. It is delicately bitter and spicy with a brief aftertaste of nuts. This oil is crafted from carefully handpicked Cobrançosa, Pajarera and Picual olives that are exclusively grown and extracted in our family estate, Vale de Arca.
Where to Find Herdade de Vale de Arca is a family-owned and operated estate, located near Torrão, Alcácer do Sal, Alentejo. As followers of the farm-to-table movement, we meticulously care for our olive groves and olive oil extraction by combining traditional methods and state-of-the-art techniques. Standing in the middle of our groves, our olive mill ensures a minimal wait time between harvest and extraction. We exclusively bottle EVOO from our own olive trees.
