Over the first two years at our new farm home we worked hard to get all the trees happy and in production, are we finished yet, no, but that is OK, it will take us many years to get all the trees back to full health, and with over 900 trees and 5 varieties of olives, it is a continual process of pruning

Our vines and trees all need water in the right quantity at the right time, and from the time of rain forward they need access to water stored in the ground, so how do we help them have the water that they need up until the summer months and maybe beyond? Our Soil, storing water Our soil drains well which the vines like, what is not

It has been a busy week here at Tenuta Le Mandorlaie, finally the weather and temperature has arrived, meaning no more heavy rain and humidity that could affect our grapevines. Many fungal related issues on vines come from the climatic conditions, so it is nice to have some hot dry weather. Work on the farm this week also included the construction of a staircase between the house and the service road, giving easier access to the orchard and vine grove, the stairs were created using local Maremma honey coloured sandstone found around the property and we feel it really fits into the environment, it's construction using stones that were
