gentle pruning<\/strong> In<\/strong> VULKANLAND STEIErMark<\/strong> <\/h1>

In recent years we have increasingly focused on gentle pruning according to Simonit & Sirch and want to implement this completely on our farm in the future in order to promote the vitality of the vines and to preserve our aging vineyards for the next generations! <\/p> <\/div><\/section>\n\n

Following the Sap flow<\/strong> <\/h2> \n\n

The fascination of the wine world is always simmering! Over the last few centuries, research and development has produced a large number of interesting grape variety breedings and innovative cultivation methods. In our gardens it was initially the stock culture, but in the late 1950s the high culture with arched pruning followed. With mechanization and increased quality requirements, the stock density was increased and the training methods and pruning practices were adapted to the changing conditions – with the aim of providing high-quality fruit for winemaking! <\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Gentle pruning<\/strong> <\/h2> \n\n

Winter pruning is one of the most important jobs in the vineyard and leads to the training of the vine, which determines the initial selection of the shoots and grapes! This is the foundation for further work processes in the vineyard. The instinct of the winemaker often plays an important role here. When pruning in winter, you can approach the vine calmly and carefully and look back at how the last year has developed. So you can now take measures when cutting so that the cane can develop well over time and for the coming growing season. The goal is then to harvest perfectly ripe, high-quality grapes. <\/p> <\/div>\n\n\n\n

Method according to \u201cSimonit & Sirch\u201d<\/strong><\/strong> <\/h2> \n\n

In recent years we have increasingly focused on gentle pruning according to Simonit & Sirch and want to implement this completely on our farm in the future in order to promote the vitality of the vines. Here it is important to follow the vine’s sap flow, to respect it through the correct “branch structure” and to avoid large wounds through pruning. Because every wound creates a cone of drying on the old wood and thereby promotes the entry of fungi and bacteria, such as the \u201cwood fungus Eska\u201d! <\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

The Basis for Great Wines<\/strong> <\/h2> \n\n

With the right pruning technique, wounds are avoided or kept small and ensure that the vines are more resilient and can better deal with stressful situations. At the same time, if handled correctly, you will have a clearer cane structure and evenly strong shoots on the fruiting cane. It is also important that with years of positive use of gentle pruning, the age of the vines is promoted in order to preserve and pass on our aging vines to future generations! Old vines produce intelligent, highly ripe fruits and thus create the basis for great, sophisticated wines! <\/p> \n\n\n
