Since the Denomination of Origin does not allow irrigation rain is especially important to these vines that grow in albariza soils \u201cevery drop of water is utilized\u201d thanks to their \u201cspectacular\u201d moisture-retaining capacity.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lustau.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Albariza.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>RIPENING <\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">The grapes have also had a <strong>&#8220;prolonged&#8221; <\/strong>maturation after a mild summer.These conditions have favored a very gradual ripening of the fruit, a greater weight of the clusters, and a slightly lower sugar content than usual ultimately reaching an average of 11.13\u00ba Baum\u00e9 that gives the grapes \u201coutstanding quality levels and balance, The typical diseases in the area have spared most of the vineyards this year, except for some outbreaks of powdery mildew in the coastal areas and a bit of \u2018green mosquitos\u2019 in the vineyards closest to the Guadalquivir, providing an &#8220;abundant healthy crop.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;The grape harvest in the Jerez region is gradual as the grapes reach maturity. In the <strong>inland <\/strong>vineyards, it usually begins in <strong>early August, <\/strong>and in the <strong>coastal areas,<\/strong> with milder temperatures and more influence from the westerly winds, the ripening is slower and the <strong>harvest later,<\/strong>&#8221; Salda\u00f1a explains. 50% of the surface is harvested manually, and another 50% mechanically. These machines allow harvesting at night, ensuring the grapes arrive fresher at the wineries. This is convenient for the crushing and fermentation process of the musts. This freshness, though, is not necessary for the grapes destined for the region&#8217;s sweet wines, which are generally harvested by hand and subjected to the traditional <strong>&#8216;asoleos,<\/strong>&#8216; a technique in which the bunches are left exposed to the sun for a week so that the water from the fruit evaporates and the sugars and acids of the grapes become more concentrated.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lustau.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Soleo.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>REGION\u2019S OVERALL RESULTS<\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">Thirty-two facilities registered with the Regulatory Council received and processed grapes from <strong>6,873 hectares of vineyards<\/strong> owned by almost <strong>1,500 growers and more than 2,000 farms.<\/strong> The total production has risen to 62,571,050 kilos, representing a 25.39% increase compared to the amount collected in 2023, a return to average productions closer to what is usual in the area. &#8220;Since July 27th, the date when the first of the registered wineries began its activities, and throughout the entire harvest, the Regulatory Council has maintained the operation for the control of the grape collection and transport to ensure compliance with the regulations and, ultimately, to guarantee consumers the authenticity of the wines and vinegar protected by our denominations&#8221; concludes Salda\u00f1a.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lustau.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Region.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">At <strong>Lustau<\/strong>, the successful campaign has provided the following data:<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>  \u2022 Harvest dates by grape variety:<br \/>\n-Palomino: Start 08\/05\/2024 \u2013 End 08\/08\/2024.<br \/>\n-Moscatel: Start 08\/28\/2024 \u2013 End 08\/30\/2024.<br \/>\n-Pedro Xim\u00e9nez: Start 09\/03\/2024 \u2013 End 09\/04\/2024.<\/p>\n<p>    \u2022 Performance and health level:<br \/>\n-Palomino: Very healthy harvest. 11.25\u00ba Baum\u00e9.

The rains have not been abundant, but during <strong>Semana Santa<\/strong> (spring), about 125 liters\/m2 (5 inches) of rainfall were recorded, which immensely helped the development of the vine. All this, combined with the fact that we had a <strong>summer where we barely experienced easterly (Levante) winds<\/strong> and didn&#8217;t suffer from heatwaves, rather cooler nights during June and July, led to a slower and more natural ripening of the vines, resulting in a very abundant and excellent quality harvest.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t<section
