L’Olive de Nyons : A Mediterranean Jewel in the Heart of Drôme Provençale
In the heart of the Drôme Provençale, a stone’s throw from Grignan, grows that symbol of Provence: the Nyons olive. This little black pearl, with its AOC (Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée) label, is much more than just a fruit.

The Nyons olive: an exceptional fruit
The Nyons olive, from the “Tanche” variety, is harvested in the Eygues valley, a region where olive trees benefit from a special climate, between sun and mistral wind. This unique olive is distinguished by its mild, almost buttery taste and subtle hazelnut aromas.
An olive oil with an inimitable taste
Nyons olive oil has exceptional taste and nutritional qualities. Sweet, fruity and slightly peppery, it is the perfect accompaniment to Provencal dishes.
