The climate is influenced by the Atlantic, with mild temperatures and abundant rainfall of around 1,500 mm per year, nevertheless there is a significant drop in rainfall during the summer. This rain combined with the plantations on sandy soil causes controlled water stress, achieving complete ripening of the fruit. After a mild winter and habitual rainfall until mid-May, the weather for the 2020 harvest was conditioned by a dry period from mid-May to mid-August. The below average rainfall pattern ensured excellent sanitary conditions throughout the vegetative season. A series of storms during mid-August provided the necessary moisture to correct the water stress and encourage full ripening without compromising the sanitary quality of the fruit.
