Kuzey Bahçe, the early harvest begins
Oct 1Nov 1Dec 1

Memecik turned a week early this year. Half the fruit is still green, half has started to colour — that is the moment we look for in an early harvest.
We started at sunrise and by midday 4,260 kilos were in; all of it went to the mill the same day. Extraction was kept below 26 degrees.
