20 YEARS OF SUSTAINABILITY
Tiempo & Tierra has been promoting projects for sustainable improvements in the vineyard for more than 20 years. The research carried out has provided conclusions that yield real and measurable results, currently being applied in all its wines
COMMITTED TO SUSTAINABILITY
Control over the vineyard
Vinified separately: To ensure we do not lose the “terroir effect” they may provide. Consistency in quality and style: we blend according to our needs, to provide consistency in quality and style year after year, regardless of the general quality of each vintage in the
appellation. Other control measures include:
· Drip irrigation
· Control stations
· Plague control measures
· Infrared satellite soil mapping
Control over the winemaking process
Tiempo y Tierra is committed to cutting edge technology in the winemaking process to ensure that the “terroir effect” of our viticulture is preserved and shown to best effect in our wines.
Night picking ·
Controlled freezing effect at harvest ·
Selection tables ·
Yeast replicators ·
Ripeness control ·
Enzyme activity control ·
Gas chromatography ·

HARVEST CONTROL
At the end of the day, all this technology outlined above help our winemaking and viticulture staff to make sure we maximise what Mother Nature provides for us. It helps them to carry out each year a strict harvest control, where no plot is picked until they say so, as ripeness levels can be upped according to their criteria, helped by the information technology provides for them. So even the most simple entry level blends benefit from being picked at optimal ripeness time, and from quality preserving methods which bring out the very best even out of basic entry level grapes.
