Olive Oil Production – 17 Years ago, when they purchased the property, our family planted an olive grove in the fertile grounds of Maison Lambot. Today the olive trees have matured and produced great harvests in 2015 and 2016. This shot shows the olive looking towards the village of Montfort. The Chateau de Montfort is on the left of the frame.
Every year, in Mid December, we harvest the olives from our 100 mature trees, with the help of local experts with whom we produce single-grove oil. The local olive press is in Le Val, a few kilometres down the road from Maison Lambot.
The olives are raked from the trees into nets arranged on the ground below. This year, the mild weather in November and December has led to a good harvest.
Maison Lambot single grove olive oil is for sale in our wine cellar and in our online shop.
