Over the two last decades, our approach to viticulture has evolved, favouring more sustainable practises. For example, we have abandoned chemical weeding methods and gone back to ploughing. Although we briefly experimented with horse-drawn ploughing on part of the estate for several years, we had to give it up due to various constraints. Today, the entire vineyard is plought mechanically, and we take care to preserve the soil by limiting the interventions to just 3 passes per year during the spring and the summer. In this way, plant cover is maintained for the remaining 9 months, encouraging biodiversity and preserving the ecological and agronomic balance of our domain.

We have gradually but drastically reduced the use of synthetic pesticides over the last few years until we have completely eliminated them, which have allowed us to receive the Organic Certification.

In recent years, the issue of biodiversity has also come to the fore, and so we have planted hundreds of trees and shrubs around the plots and in the vineyards. We have also deliberately left large areas untouched and virgin of any intervention. All this encourages biodiversity, in terms of both flora and fauna. As a result, we have seen a significant increase in insect and bird populations, and the appearance of plants that had previously disappeared, such as wild orchids.
