Winter pruning

Vignoble - Vin de Savoie - Domaine de l'Idylle

Winter pruning is an important step which limit the excessive growth of the vine and will condition the 2018 production. We select the number of buds per vine and the future structure of the vinestock. This work is entirely manual and require a lot of experience.

On the Estate we continue our efforts to reduce phytosanitary product. The results are already visible, the soils are aerated and the vineyard is full of life. This balance between vine and his environment is the key for a sustainable viticulture.
