We hand-pick and cold press all the flavour & goodness of a tree-ripe Hawke’s Bay apple.

I assume:

a. We hand-pick and cold press all the flavour & goodness of a tree-ripe Hawke’s Bay apple.

b. ... from a tree-ripe Hawke’s Bay apple.

c. We hand-pick and cold press all the flavour & goodness of tree-ripe Hawke’s Bay apples.

d. ... from tree-ripe Hawke’s Bay apples.

They all work here.

Sentences (a) and (c) practically mean the same, and so do (b) and (d).

Sentences (a) and (c) focus on the fact that all the flavour & goodness are of an apple/apples (rather than something artificial).

Sentences (b) and (d) emphasize that all the flavour & goodness are from an apple/apples (rather than from something else).

Are these right?

I think from may just put a bit more emphasis on the extraction process. Given that they pick the particular fruit by hand and cold press it, they are making a premium product, so additives, etc, would not be used, and there's nothing in the choice of prepositions to imply that. We know from the opening words that this is not industrial slop apple juice.
