In spite of using the latest technologies in the elaboration building located in the Valle del Avia (Ourense) for the low-invasive vinification of Bodegas El Paraguas’ wines, the Galician company is constantly betting on recovering the traditional, natural and artisanal processes in its vineyards.
The last action committed to the respect for the environment that has been carried out by the producing house that signs the wines El Paraguas Atlántico, La Sombrilla and Fai un Sol de Carallo comes from an agreement with a Galician farmer to get the traditional plow back in its vineyards. The “nameless” mare has begun plowing the soils where the Bodegas El Paraguas’ vineyards grow.
This respectful treatment with the soil that Bodegas El Paraguas exhibits is not only a mere landscape impact -abandoning the tractors to show off animals- nor an increasingly hackneyed marketing strategy. The granitic soil of the vineyard is the first one that appreciates it, since it eliminates the possible fuels that can lose the machines, turns the soil more naturally and the roots do not suffer from the crushing with the enormous weight of the tractors.
