Bodega Nekeas, located in the Nekeas Valley of Spain, has been recÂogÂnized at the NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. The proÂducer secured a Gold Award for its Nekeas Arroniz and a Silver Award for Nekeas Arbequina.
The Nekeas Arroniz, which earned the Gold Award, is an organic extra virÂgin olive oil made from 100 perÂcent Arróniz olives. This monoÂvaÂriÂetal oil is native to the north of Navarre, highÂlightÂing the unique charÂacÂterÂisÂtics of the region’s olive culÂtiÂvaÂtion.
In addiÂtion, the Nekeas Arbequina received a Silver Award. This extra virÂgin olive oil is crafted from 100 perÂcent Arbequina olives and is described as mild and fruity with green notes and hints of tomato.
Bodega Nekeas is known for its meticÂuÂlous conÂtrol over every stage of proÂducÂtion, ensurÂing high-qualÂity olive oils from the Nekeas Valley, a region noted for its disÂtincÂtive olive culÂtiÂvaÂtion due to its northerly locaÂtion on the Iberian Peninsula.
The winÂning brands are preÂsented in the Official Guide and the Olive Oil Times World Ranking.
