Almost exactly a year to the day we again find ourselves picking the olives here at Velagota. Only difference from last year was the weather- we had to keep dodging the showers! (good excuse for a wine break!).
Only slightly more than last year- the weight came in at 160kilos. The nice thing about this quinta is the harvest seems to be fairly early which means we are some of the first into the press and avoid the huge queues which will occur over the next week or two. 
Shame it's all over for another year!
