Simonit & Sirch’s Spurred Cordon Methodology for spur-pruned vines is the companion manual to Marco Simonit and Pierpaolo Sirch’s indispensable seminal guide to Guyot pruning.
First published in Italian in 2016, the English translation boasts more than 400 images and covers every step for professional or amateur pruners to follow to achieve optimum balance and longevity in their vines.
The efficacy of Simonit & Sirch's pruning methodology is backed by robust scientific theory and extensive testing in vineyards across the globe. These guides offers clear step-by-step instructions for pruning vines to maximise vine health and minimise wood disease, from correct establishment to late maturity.
“Caring about viticultural detail with the same sort of precision has won [Simonit] more than 150 clients around the world, including many of the most revered wine producers of all.” Jancis Robinson, jancisrobinson.com, ‘Marco Simonit – pruning superstar’
“Now the wine world’s foremost pruning guru and vine whisperer, [Marco Simonit's] rise has come from his stunningly simple observation: that severe pruning used in modern... vineyards weakens vines by blocking the flow of their life-giving sap, thereby making them susceptible to disease and premature death.” Robert Camuto, Wine Spectator
