organic commitment
Nurturing the nature and our vines
Bodegas Vegalfaro cultivates 60 hectares (148 acres) of low-yielding vines that fully conform to the strict requirements of Ecological Farming established by the European Union. The winery has never utilized artificial products in its vineyards, so soils are alive with a prolific variety of microfauna. These microscopic organisms are very important for the decomposition of organic material, as well as for the absorption of nutrients through a symbiotic relationship with the vine roots.
Biodiversity and sustainability
Vegalfaro’s commitment to organic practices always seeks to promote biodiversity and sustainability, for maximum soil health, vine health and wine quality.

Microfauna also help prevent blight and generally promote plant health. To ensure energy sustainability, solar panels have been placed in the vineyards to produce green energy and power the irrigation systems.

PEST PREVENTION
Pests are controlled by the use of mites, spiders and bees that eat insects that could damage the vines. Another method is to use sheep to control the growth of weeds.

FOLLOWING THE PRINCIPLES OF BIODYNAMICS
In our Pago de los Balagueses estate we grow our natural remedies to enhance life proliferation in our soils. We plant chamomile, nettles, and legumes that will contribute to the development of natural microelements and microfauna, in order to bring health to the vines.
