Mountaineering
For centuries, the vines were grown close to the ground in circular natural stone walls that were intended to protect the grapes from the wind. However, the management was extremely labor-intensive. In some cases ladders had to be used to access the grapes for tending and harvesting. Straight-line cultivation methods are now increasingly being used. Natural stone masonry is only used as natural protection on the 'weather side'. This makes the work much easier.
