Rovinj Riviera
Rovinj-Rovigno
Present again in our Guide with a result confirming its level, this beautiful farm in Rovinj was founded in the 1960s. Damir Dobravac carries on a familiar agricultural tradition, which originally consisted in the production of fruit and vegetables, then also included a vineyard, an olive grove and tourist accommodation. Today he runs 4 hectares of specialized surface with 1,300 trees.
In the last harvest 210 quintals of olives were produced, equal to a yield of about 22 hectolitres of oil. We recommend the Extra Virgin OL, which is a beautiful intense limpid golden yellow colour with slight green hues. Its aroma is ample and rotund, with vegetal hints of artichoke and chicory, together with fragrant notes of officinal herbs, especially mint and rosemary. Its taste is mellow and harmonic, with a flavour of lettuce and a finish of cinnamon, black pepper and almond. Bitterness and pungency are present and complimentary, with a sweet finish.
