  • Non-use of herbicides, substituted by traditional labour or manual weeding.<\/li>\n
  • Elimination of the use of chemical fertilisers and composts, substituted by natural manure.<\/li>\n
  • Synthetic phytosanitary products are substituted by copper, sulphur and sexual confusion techniques.<\/li>\n
  • Biodynamic agriculture techniques, where we emphasise the interrelationship between the soil, plants and animals, treating the whole as a system in equilibrium, protecting beneficial fauna and preserving and improving soil fertility.<\/li>\n
  • Meticulous selection of varieties adapted to each area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    These types of practices largely represent a return to the roots of traditional viticulture and require greater attention to the vineyard. The health results of the grape and the vineyard in general, even in the least favourable years have been good, the quality of grapes and productions demonstrating the possibilities of these cultivation techniques for Rioja.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    From our origins, Dionisio Ruiz, the founder of Vi\u00f1a Ijalba, was aware of the need to use the application of oenological practices to produce \u201chealthier\u201d, quality wines. As a result of the work carried out in the field of conversion toward more ecological viticulture, in the 1998 harvest, we launched \u201cSolferino 98\u201d on the market, becoming the first Rioja wine produced under the La Rioja Organic Agriculture Control Body, followed by practically all other wines of the winery.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
