DO TACORONTE ACENTEJO

The Most beautiful region, plethoric of luminous and alive greenery, constituted by a sloping plane crossed by numerous ravines, where the vineyard cultivated in areas aterrazados, rises up from almost the marine edge even near 1000 meters of altitude, centering, nevertheless, most of his vineyard between 300 and 750 meters. The particular natural and human conditions of the zone have produced very original forms of culture of the grapevine, consisting of plantations in very separated lines (6 to 8 meters) of vine-stocks formed in tracks that rest on supports (forks) and spread occupying, during the active period of the plant, the whole surface of the plot, for later, once effected the vintage, to be gathered on the line making like that the plot free for herbaceous cultures, principally potatoes.
