COLLECTING
Quality is the premise and guideline for collecting.
- Only olives from the tree are selected.
- Only healthy fruits are chosen.
- The maximum time between collecting and milling olives is less than 4 hours, to avoid the possible oxidation of the fruit.
- Collecting takes place between October and January.
- Collecting depends on which stage of veraison the fruit is in, and this is determined along with other aspects by the chromatic index.
