Sustainable Vineyard Management

Preserving the legacy of our old vineyards for the next generations is upon us. That’s why we are acting in preserving them along with their environment and biodiversity in various ways.

Our vineyard has always been managed in a sustainable way. We have never used any pesticides or herbicides and our very low density of plantation allows us to avoid irrigation. Today, the totality of our managed vineyard is certified organic, and we keep increasing this surface with our partner winegrowers.

Our 200 plots, all around the region are generally surrounded by forest and scrubland and we own 16 hectares of organically grown pine forest. These areas act as biodiversity protectors and we do our best to develop and preserve the natural habitat for animals and plant species.

Innovative Initiatives

Organic Practices, Energy and Water Management

To minimize energy and environmental impact, we have installed solar panels on the cellar with which we generate most of the electricity we need in key periods of the year.

To reduce our water consumption, we recycle our wastewater through an internal water treatment station.

All our efforts resulted in getting certified ISO 14001 "Environmental Management System", reflecting our mindset towards a continuous improvement in this facet.

IBERVITIS: a polyclonal selection project

IBERVITIS is an international cooperation project, developed within the framework of the EUREKA Multilateral Cooperation Program, in which Spanish and Portuguese companies participate with the aim of promoting the polyclonal selection methodology in vineyards of the Iberian Peninsula using seven key varieties of viticulture in Spain and Portugal, such as albariño, arinto, godello, sercial, rabo de ovelha, rufete and tempranillo.

The consortium promoting this project is formed by the Spanish entities Bodegas La Horra (coord.), Bodega Paco & Lola and Bodega Numanthia, as well as the Portuguese group Sogrape and the Portuguese association for the conservation of the vine (PORVID). It also has the support and collaboration of the Higher Institute of Agronomy of the University of Lisbon. The project is expected to last 36 months. With a total budget of 904,903 euros, co-financed by the European Union and by the Center for Technological Development and Innovation (CDTI Innovation) with ERDF funds, through the Multi-regional Operational Program for Intelligent Growth 2021-2027.
