GROWING CONDITIONS

The weather remained cool until the end of March, when days warmed quickly. Low yields and a dry start to the year accelerated ripening. Harvest was completed in perfect autumn weather by late June. Yields were lower than previous years, but the fruit arrived at the press in stunning condition.

HARVEST

The JOSEPH First Run uses fruit picked at the beginning of the olive harvest. The fruit was pressed, blended and bottled in early July. We pick the finest parcels from different groves and varieties to produce the best extra virgin olive oil of the season.
