Stripping involves removing the leaves that cover the grapes to improve exposure to
light and therefore maturity. Manual stripping is infrequent, linked to the strategy of the head of culture or
to the constraints of the specifications
In the middle of the summer it is only carried out on the rising sun or north side so that the remaining foliage protects the
bunch of a sun too aggressive.
A second leafing is sometimes done late to facilitate the harvest; it is then performed
on both sides of the row because the grapes are fully mature and the sun less aggressive.
