Olive Oil Harvest Season
When and how olive oil harvest happens: olio nuovo and seasonal specialties.
In Italy, olive harvest takes place from October to December, depending on region and cultivar. Earlier harvest produces greener and more intense oil, later harvest a softer and sweeter one.
"Olio nuovo" (new oil) is the unfiltered oil obtained right after pressing — intensely green, peppery and full of lively flavor. It is a seasonal delicacy worth trying.
Harvest time is the most exciting period in the olive oil world. Many Italian estates offer harvest-time tastings and experiences.
