SUSTAINING YOUR PLOTS
Opting for high grafted vines is ensuring the recovery of your replacements and, thus, perpetuate your parcels of old vines.
These vines are grafted to 65 cm / 25.5 Inch rootstocks, in contrast to conventional vine plants (30 cm / 12 Inch). During planting, the grafts are 10 to 20 cm under the first wire.
> On order, we can graft high vines from 40 to 90 cm.
