The natural methods for regenerating the soils
Throughout the fall the sap drops to the roots, the vineyards gradually shed their leaves and slowly get ready for facing winter.
It is the appropriate time to spray the 500 field preparation, made of horn filled with cow manure.
The horns are filled with cow manure then buried in the ground all winter long. Once fermented the horns are emptied and the manure is mixed with rain water so as to get a liquid preparation.
Nowadays it is the biodynamic basis treatment which helps the vine’s regeneration by developing microbiological life and increasing the soil fertility in order to replenish its reserves.
At William Fèvre this practice is reserved for Grands Crus parcels.
Every year at the same time the vinegrowers of the wine estate walk through the rows in order to minutely spray this preparation.
Although this work is demanding, it is largely offset by benefits the vineyards reap of.
