Picholine Monovarietal

Rusty Gate Estate's Picholine Extra Virgin Olive Oil is produced from the French Picholine olive variety, originally from Gard in southern France but now cultivated globally. Grown on the estate's groves in Victoria, Australia, this oil features a light, delicate profile with aromatic notes of green apple and a hint of grassy herbs. Cold-pressed to retain its freshness, it offers a refined taste that pairs well with salads, dressings, and light dishes.
