Local producers have once again made their mark in the US, with recent LA results cementing the impact of the incredible achievements at this year’s New York EVOO competition. Australian EVOOs took home a Best of Class award, two Gold, two Silver and four Bronze medals, across both mono varietals and blends. Heading the results tally was Mornington Peninsula producer Cape Schanck Olive Estate, with Best of Class and Gold for its Medium Frantoio, Gold for its Robust Leccino, and Bronze for both its Robust Picholine and Robust Picual. Rylstone Olive Press gained Silver for its Medium Cudgegong 3 and Bronze for its Medium Frantoio and Cudgegong 2 oils, while Oasis Olives took Silver for its Medium Strathbogie Region and Victorian Olive Groves was awarded a Bronze for its Robust Early Harvest.
