the collar·Collections of Cultures Found vine varieties are increasingly mature. Today, This brings us to seventy different varieties and soon we will provide plant material and plants to grow.

It is a work of patience with which we choose the best plants, discern those with viruses, graft and transplant for several campaigns.

in the meantime, we continue testing wine with the help of Olivera Cooperativa.

Now we turn to the offer made available at 60 € to 11 € the box or bottle.

Wines are always fresh, by the late spring and early summer.

I think that every purchase you make is a little fuel for our project.

this week, we visited the conservatory of vine varieties INRA Domaine de Vassal to learn about the management and conservation of cabbage·collections. It is the most comprehensive conservation center in the world vine, over 2500 Vitis Vinifera varieties and hundreds of hybrid varieties and rootstocks.

The team of the center showed us the scrupulous work of mechanics perfected since its inception in the late nineteenth century. It was especially interesting to see the logic with which plants and organize file system and monitoring of all information. They could also take note of the different techniques used by vegetative propagation.

The center of distilled Vassal·the rigor and professionalism combined with a sharp public vocation and networking with any related experience. They can learn a lot.

Thanks, Jean Michel, Thierry, bladder, Sandrine i Daniel.

We invite you to the presentation of the results of research on traditional varieties of vines that have developed over the last four years within the project Cultures Found, promoted by Slow Food Terres de Lleida.

Throughout this time, We lined the vineyards old Noguera, part of Urgell and Pallars Jussà to know the grapes themselves and keep them.

Thanks to dialogues with farmers and veterans of various advisory councils, We have seventy different varieties, between the table and wine.

Much of these varieties are currently unknown although they had in implementing our region. Some of them are unique and unpublished, without having documented in any other survey. Others are shared with other areas, but research has helped document their historical presence. all, together, are an essential part of our culture and identify us as a territory.

Aware that the maintenance of these varieties and exploring its possibilities requires maximum participation possible, We would like to share with you the information we have collected so far. With this objective, you are invited to the event.
