Adapting and Building Resilience to Increased Vintage Variation
Viticultural regions are familiar with vintage variation as a result of weather. However, in terms of climate change an increase in extremes and greater climate system instability is resulting in both occurrence of ‘extreme’ years and degree of variation beyond those growers are familiar with. Regenerative viticulture techniques include: Diversifying/decreasing monoculture By having more than…
