Olive Auction built this page from public records so buyers can find the estate. Its own people can claim it at no cost — complete the story, list lots, answer buyers.
After a claim, we confirm by emailEverything here comes from public sources — award lists, certification registers, the territory inventories. The rest of the story — the family, the grove, the real age of the trees, this year's lab sheet — only the mill can tell, and it is the part buyers bid on.
Rumaroli farms olives in the south of Buenos Aires province, between the sea and the sierras. The producer's case for that ground is climatic: the ocean close by, warm days and cool nights while the fruit ripens, conditions it describes as resembling the Mediterranean and credits with the high oleic content, concentrated polyphenols and low acidity it looks for in the fruit.
Three farms make up the operation, held by a family the producer describes simply as an enterprising one. Finca Rumaroli and Finca La María lie in the district of Coronel Dorrego, La María the youngest of the three; Finca Garbo is in neighbouring Tres Arroyos. The plantings across them are Arbequina, Arbosana, Frantoio, Nevadillo and Coratina, and the fruit goes to the company's own mill at Coronel Dorrego, fitted with what it calls latest-generation Italian technology.
The bottlings follow the plantings. Frantoio, Nevadillo, Coratina and Arbequina each go out as monovarietals alongside a blend, and the producer sets out a profile for each: Coratina the most forceful, green almond, eucalyptus and pepper; Arbequina the gentlest, green apple, banana and pear; Nevadillo between them, artichoke, green banana and walnut.
