Among our vineyard’s five acres of organic, dry-farmed grapes are interspersed rows of olive trees, approximately 150 trees. Growing and harvesting in ways that respect and protect the natural surroundings, we seek to carry on the tradition of producing high quality wines and olive oil as was done in vineyards and olive groves centuries ago. We produce robust, cold pressed, organic, extra virgin olive oil from our organically grown and dry-farmed Italian and Spanish olive varietals. Our hand harvested olives are a blend of six Italian varietals: Leccino, Maurino, Coratina, Frantoio, Itrana, Pendolino, and the Spanish Picual.
Olives: Condor’s Hope dry-farmed organic blend of Italian varietals: Leccino, Pendolino, Maurino, Coratina, Frantoio, Itrana and Spanish varietal: Picual.
Harvest: November 10-12 and 27th, 2023, we expect over 5 tons of olives.
Mill: Our oil was processed at the same mill we have used for many years in the Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Barbara County, now under new ownership.
Characteristics: Olio Nuovo’ has the full grassy, peppery finish full of healthy polyphenols and adds a highlight when used fresh in salad dressings, on top of dishes, and with bread. Best enjoyed within the first year of harvest.
This year 60 friends and family gathered over 3 days to bring in 3000 pounds of olives. This medium-sized harvest from 100 trees yielded a robust oil that releases multiple deep flavors from a grassy, buttery start to a peppery finish. Olive oil is best used within a year after harvest.

We are thrilled to share with you our certified organic, extra-virgin, dry-farmed olive oil. Use this grassy, peppery, unfiltered oil directly on salads, topping for soups and veggies and, of course, with your favorite bread. Unlike wine, it is recommended that you use olive oil within the first year of harvest, since it loses its vibrancy over time. Hand picked November 2021 and immediately milled at Figueroa Farms in Santa Ynez Valley.
