Chapter V. Watching Hands

By Sin categorizar

In chapter 5 of our series, we return after the topping and the undressing (https://elcoto.com/blog/capitulo-iv-manos-que-despuntan-y-desnietan/21/es) to a full vineyard Jose Mari, our artisan, becomes an attentive observer of the bunches during veraison, the stage in which the grapes stop growing to begin their maturation.Our bunches need sunlight and summer heat to carry out this process correctly, and with these elements and the help of Jose Mari, they will change color until they finally reveal that they are ripe.The end of veraison is the most reliable indicator of a very important moment in the life of the vineyard. Do you want to know what it is? We reveal it to you in “Observing Hands”. We hope you enjoy it.

Chapter IV. Hands that stand out and bare

VINES AND SWORDS IN “HANDS THAT STEP AND SHAKE” The fourth chapter of our series is here: “Hands that tip and strip”. Only a few weeks after the green pruning, in which we saw how our artisans selected the best shoots of each vine, we returned to the vineyard, which looks green and lush again, to continue our work.This time we will see two very important processes : topping and stripping. The first one, topping, is one of the most spectacular that happens in our lands, in which artisans work equipped with swords; and the deniete, which receives this curious name since it consists of eliminating the third generation shoots of each strain. Do you want to know what they do it for? Don’t miss this interesting episode.

Chapter III. Weeding hands

By Sin categorizar

WE REMAIN WITH THE GOOD IN “HANDS THAT ESCARDAN”.

In the previous chapter of “Hands” we talked to you about how artisans wait for patients during crying and overflowing for the next step to take action, a phase that we present to you on this occasion: green pruning.

With the arrival of June this work is carried out, one of the most important in the life of the vineyard. When the vines look leafy, it is the turn of our artisans, who are in charge of examining each vine and determining which shoots are main and which shoots are secondary, eliminating the latter. This selection will guarantee the quality and quantity of the bunches that the vines produce.

You can see the third chapter “Hands that weed weeding” and the previous ones on our official YouTube channel.

You know, both in the vineyard and in life, you always have to stick with the good!

Chapter II. Waiting hands

By Sin categorizar

WE CONTINUE OUR JOURNEY WITH “HANDS THAT WAIT”.

There are times when the most important tasks a craftsman’s hands can do are to watch and wait patiently. And this is what happens in chapter two of our “Hands” series.

We continue our long journey with “Hands that are waiting”, where Juan Carlos, a vineyard operator, will show you the following phases after pruning: weeping and overflowing. Both occur naturally, conditioned by pruning, which marked their optimal growth.

It is a beautiful time in the vineyard, in which spring and its temperature mark the beginning of its vegetative cycle, completely changing the color of its landscape.

We invite you to continue sharing our passion for wine and to know all the time and effort that goes into each vintage.

We remind you that in our YouTube Channel you can find compiled all the chapters that we are sharing.

We hope you enjoy it.
