A lo que nos referimos con viticultura biodinámica y heróica

The moon in relation to the earth and its sidereal cycles, the biodynamic agricultural calendar helps the farmer know the right time to prune, fertilize and harvest.

No herbicides are used and the vegetation is allowed to grow freely between the rows of the vines.

Natural fertilizers are made with animal excrement that is introduced into cow horns and buried to later dynamize them in water and apply it to the vineyard.

The vineyards are located on extremely steep slopes. This requires greater effort and manual work due to the limited reach with machinery.

Getting to the vineyards can be complicated, requiring special roads and hand picking.

Lower yield of grapes per hectare. Although the grapes are of high quality due to sun exposure and the characteristics of the unique terroir.
