1- When is the best time to plant the vineyard?
The vine is a deciduous plant, which makes a winter and vegetative stop .

The current trend is to delay planting well into spring a little, to avoid the possible risk of frost.
In warmer areas :
Plantings take place in early winter.

Currently, as most of the plantations are carried out with drip irrigation systems , we eliminate the need to plant early, being able to extend the planting time much longer by having an external supply of water.
