Summer activity \u00b7 July \u2013 August<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf43 Immersion: Leaf removal<\/h2>\n

In the height of summer, the grape clusters are forming and the vine is at its peak growth. For the grapes to ripen well, they must be freed from the shade of the surrounding leaves. Leaf removal means giving the sun and air direct access to the future wines \u2014 a gesture that can be felt in every glass at tasting.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What you will do<\/h3>\n

You will manually remove the leaves surrounding the grape clusters, working on both the morning and afternoon sides depending on sun exposure. The winegrower explains how to avoid over-exposing the grapes, finding the right balance between protective shade and the light needed for ripening.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udca1 In summer, vineyard work is done early to take advantage of the cool morning air. Sunscreen and a hat are your best friends. The reward? An aperitif in the vineyard overlooking the clusters you just revealed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
