We don’t like to mow often but this year has seen extra rain so the covercrop has grown well and completely covers the surface, lowering the temperature in the fruiting zone, thus helping to retain acidity. It takes our encargado Carlos about three days to trim the whole vineyard manually. It's not his favourite job, but that just means he won’t do more than is needed! Thanks Carlos.
