It seems a contradiction and yes, it may also seem like an act with a negative standpoint. What sense does it have after working the vines all year long? Is it necessary to remove almost 40% of production of a vineyard? Which positive effects will we have on wine?<\/p>\n

The grapes to the ground before the harvest<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Until not so many years ago, there was a great objective above all and it was to produce the maximum grapes that were possible. The land was cultivated based on its fertility and capacity to produce.<\/p>\n

Nowadays, however, the concept has changed and there is a priority with quality above quantity.<\/strong> Evolution in people and life also has its effect on the world of wine, and for this reason, techniques that were used few years ago are now simply unthinkable.<\/p>\n

In this particular case, the \u2018pre-harvest\u2019 helps us to balance the production of a vineyard<\/strong> and allows us to improve its maturation and health status of the fruit.<\/strong> We mainly carry out this job in the young vineyards due to their great production capacity and will always give us a superior qualitative result! Will we notice it in the glass of wine? Definitively yes.<\/p>\n

Warm regards winelovers!<\/p>\n
