A good plantation not only affects the quality of the plant, the hands and the know-how of the vine grower’s are the key to the perfect development of the plant. Therefore we give a few tips that will help to obtain a perfect plantation.
- Receiving plant must dampen so you recover from stress, and keep it in a cool place and without airflow.
- Clean the border of buds and intermediate roots (especially in very vigorous varieties), the lower roots must be cut in such a way that they can recover (never raze).
- Keep in mind frames of plantation of the D.O.
- In the first pruning, cut the sprouting of graft leaving two buds, causing further development the following year.
- The Elimination of clusters: the first year in its entirety; the second year half of the production; and the third year a third (to not produce a premature depletion). WHITE VARIETIES OVERFLOW MATURITY
