Vineyard mechanization

A large harvester is driving through a vineyard. The machine passes over a row that it passes between the wheels. — Grape harvester at work.

In the past, everything in agriculture was done by hand, or with the help of draft animals, but fortunately those days are long gone. In viticulture, and especially in organic viticulture, there is still plenty of manual work, but here, too, more and more machines are moving in.

Kathrin and Andreas are sitting at a table with two laptops on it. They toast each other with two wine glasses. There are a few wine bottles on the table. — Wine fair in the home office.

“It’s getting tiring!” Everyone can probably identify with this statement by now. We are in the fortunate position of being able to do our normal work without restrictions. What’s more, we can always go outside when the weather is nice, and that of course helps in a situation where we have few other people to meet. But there is one thing we do miss, and that is personal contact with our customers.

Trockenbeerenauslese

Long rows of vines covered with bird nets. In the foreground are people who harvest into wheelbarrows and have folded up the nets for this purpose. There are no longer any leaves on the vines and the grapes are completely affected by Botrytis. — Harvesting Trockenbeerenauslese in November.

This year’s grape harvest started a little later, and took even longer. However, there is a good reason for this. Just in time before the first snow, we were able to harvest a Trockenbeerenauslese from Sämling grapes. We are happy and celebrate the end of a good wine year 2020.
