The grape varieties: Burgundy melon, mad white and cabernet franc
area: 2.7Ha.
Treatments are on the back of a man with a thermal solo atomizer and a solo wheelbarrow. Copper (in slurry or hydroxide), sulfur (micronized), pine terpenes (heliosol) and herbal teas (picked in parts by myself) + essential oils.
Soil work is done by tractor, harvesting is manual.
In the vineyards: size and burning of wood, disbudding, trellising.
In the cellar: no or few interventions. Tastings and classic lab tests. However, withdrawals with pump possible but rarely performed, bonding if necessary and sulfiting at 2gr / Hl before bottling only if necessary are the main interventions.
