Leaving vines in Gironde

Leafletto allow aeration of the bunches of grapes

Effeuillage des vignes - travaux activitis
Stripping involves removing the leaves that cover the grapes to improve exposure to

light and therefore maturity. Manual stripping is infrequent, linked to the strategy of the head of culture or

to the constraints of the specifications

In the middle of the summer it is only carried out on the rising sun or north side so that the remaining foliage protects the

bunch of a sun too aggressive.

A second leafing is sometimes done late to facilitate the harvest; it is then performed

on both sides of the row because the grapes are fully mature and the sun less aggressive.
