Based in Nice, the company earned its first World Competition award for its Alziari Grand Cru brand, an organic medium-intensity Cailletier.

"Maison Alziari is very proud of the Silver Award won at the NYIOOC," said co-owner David Piot. "It is an immense source of pride for all the professionals contributing to the company's success; it recognizes everyone’s work."

"From Nice to the rest of the world, this distinction is a testimony to the passion and dedication that drives every drop of Alziari olive oil," he added.

Using traditional methods, Neolive produced 4,000 liters of extra virgin olive oil in the 2023/24 crop year.

"This year, the olive harvest was a major challenge for Maison Alziari due to drought," Piot said. "In addition, a careful selection of olives has been essential to preserve the organoleptic quality of the olive oil to guarantee the distinctive aroma, flavor and sensory properties of the brand."
