GOING ORGANIC

Nawozy naturalne

After checking nitrogen levels in our soil we sow seeds in alternating rows to naturally enhance the nutrients in our soil.
Zachęcanie dzikiej przyrody

Our vineyard is planted with wild flowers and green manures which provide a welcoming home for insects, birds and animals.
Cykle agrobiologiczne

We use agrobiological techniques which respect the natural cycle of the vines. We dynamise and manually spray green manures, concoctions and preparations to naturally improve and revitilise our whole terroir.

Techniki przycinania

Ben believes PUSSARD pruning was one of the most beneficial changes we made to restore our vines. Now-a-days he uses a blend of PUSSARD and DOUBLE GUYOT pruning. Each vine is pruned by Ben depending on the individual vine and canes.. We do not have a team of workers in for this task.
