Primo Estate ’Joseph’ Cold-Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil 750ml

NOTES

James Halliday in his 'Wine Atlas of Australia' declares, the Primo Estate approach "is the sort of ingenuity, of daring, which lies outside the imagination of the Old World winemakers and which stands Australia in such good stead." Robert Parker agrees, adding that "I enjoy Primo Estate's offerings as they are innovative, singular, flavourful, complex wines. These creatively made efforts must be admired for their individuality as much as their bold flavours and personality".

All grapes for the wines are sourced from 3 vineyards: McMurtie Road in McLaren Vale, Virginia in the Adelaide Plains and Clarendon; a sub region of the famed McLaren Vale.

At JOSEPH we believe 2009 to be the greatest olive vintage in our 20 year history of extra virgin olive oil production. Perfect ripening conditions during the summer coincided with the olive groves of South Australia's Mount Compass and Willunga Hills regions finally reaching their full peak of maturity and the resulting oils are truly outstanding.

TASTING NOTES

Primo Estate's winemaker and master oil blender creates JOSEPH Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil from grove specific batches of fruit picked at the hight of 2009's spectacular growing season. The sought after characters of green banana, almond and green olive fruits are all there on the palate finishing with a clean, peppery bite.
