Australian producer Homeleigh Grove has received a trophy at the “Concorso Internazionale ARMONIA” (ARMONIA International Competition). The winners were announced recently at a presentation ceremony at the UNICEF Auditorium in Rome, Italy, with Homeleigh Grove awarded second place in the Delicate Fruity category for its Lowanna’s Paddock. “Gran Mention” awards were also received by Alto Olives (Australia) for its Robust and The Olive Place (New Zealand) for its VIRTUO. This is the first time a local oil has taken a trophy in the international ARMONIA competition and is an outstanding result, awarded from a field of 370 olive oils entered from across the globe.
Full details of the 2014 ARMONIA Southern Hemisphere Olive Oil Competition winners can be found in the coming June edition of Olivegrower & Processor.
