Today Casa Relvas has 360 Merino sheep to help preserve the ecosystem and the soil. From harvest to budbreak, our sheep live in the vineyard and help to control grass growth which allows us to avoid the use of herbicides and not tillage during the autumn and winter months.
Turnips, radishes, mustards, cabbages and peas are examples of plants we use at Casa Relvas to decompress the soil. These plants belong to the category of cover crops or green manure crops, which are grown specifically to naturally and sustainably improve the health of the soil.
Did you know that the cover crop between the rows of vines protects the soil against water and wind erosion and contributes to the rational and sustainable maintenance of the vineyard, thanks to its ability to attract beneficial organisms that feed on parasitic species?
