Left fallow for twenty years, this plot that we acquired in 2018 was used as an illegal dumpsite for some time. With the goal of transforming it back into healthy land, we dedicated 6 months to collect and bring 200 tons of construction and public works debris to the local landfill. This plot is not […]
Our aromatic alley functions as an “insectarium.” Bushes like rosemary, thyme, and lavender, as well as fruit trees such as pomegranate, fig, and cherry, serve as host plants for insects beneficial to our vines. Insects that provide services to plants are referred to as “beneficials.” There are four types of beneficials: – Pollinators aid […]
In just a handful of healthy soil, there are more microorganisms than there are humans on Earth. 90% of this life resides in the top 15 centimeters of soil.

The answer depends on what is anticipated in terms of climate and market trends. This is a complex exercise because a vineyard is established for the next 30 years or more, while climate […]
The year 2022, with its early start for plants, skimpy amounts of rainfall and long period of hot weather, was a reflection of recent years and probably of those to come. The climatic conditions were trying for all living things (plants as well as animals, including us)! Thankfully, once again, the vines proved their resilience […]
