Winter Maintenance in the Vineyards
The winter season is exceptionally important for our vines as this is when they rest and build their strength for the growth season. During this time; we prune the vines to ensure optimum growth and we manage the cover crop. At the end of May, we sowed korog seeds inbetween the vineyard rows which grows to become the cover crop. This cover crop is essential for managing soil erosion, fertility, soil quality, water, weeds, pests and diseases. When the korog dries out and dies in spring, it will create a natural compost for our vines.
