The competition with Veronafiere patronage closed yesterday in Santiago, Chile
In addition to 9 medals, 16 Special Mentions were also awarded among the 70 samples assessed 29 September-2 October in the twin Sol d'Oro competition dedicated to extra virgin olive oils produced in the southern hemisphere.
Verona - Santiago, Chile, 3 October 2014. An olive oil tour uniting the world. Santiago in Chile last night saw the completion of the first edition of the Sol d'Oro Southern Hemisphere competition (29 September-2 October) which attracted 70 samples of extra virgin olive oil from six countries. The new initiative, organized by Panel Cata Chile, the trade association that promotes consumption of quality olive oil and cultural exchanges with the worldwide olive sector, enjoys the patronage of Veronafiere and is effectively the replica, in the most appropriate period for olive oils produced between April and June, of the competition - acknowledged as the most important in the world - held the past 12 years in February in Verona. This is why Sol d'Oro Southern Hemisphere adopted Sol d'Oro's regulations and assessment quality is assured thanks to the same panel leader and jury. Awards were made in each category (medium, light and intense fruit) to products from companies based in Argentina, Chile, South Africa and Uruguay, while the Special Mentions went to products from Australia and Peru. As part of the next edition of Sol&Agrifood in Verona 22-25 March 2015, these award-winning oils will take part in a grand tasting, various other tasting and b2b meetings. They will also be included in the 'Sol d'Oro Stars' publication presented to incoming buyers from all around the world.
