After Vendemmia its onto the Olive harvest

After the hectic time of the grape harvest, where we harvested all our grapes which are now fermenting and are fast on their way to becoming Tenuta Le Mandorlaie’s first Reserve wine, its now time to do some maintenance around the olive trees in readiness for the olive harvest.

We never forget how hard our olive trees are working, first they to choose to flower over making more foliage, and then they choose to hold onto the olives that are right now increasing in size and getting ready to harvest and be made into our incredible organic extra virgin olive oil.

This weeks work is cleaning under the olive trees, so that the collection nets can be placed easily close to the trunks of the olive trees, we don’t want to lose any olives, every one counts!
