I+D+i

Martín Códax winery pledges its firm commitment to development and investigation managing different projects in Pé Redondo, our experimental vineyard. With them we try to go into the knowledge of albariño grape and to improve the quality of our products.
 

2003

Establishment of an essay of the behavior of albariño with ten different grafting carriers:

This investigation try to know how albariño responds to grafting carriers of medium vigor what let us study how this new techniques influence in cultivation cycles, in the production and in quality. This investigation is in collaboration with the Politecnic University of Madrid.

2003

Study of the behavior of albariño in four trellis systems facing the emparrado:


 

With Mr. José Ramón Lisarrague as the main investigator and in collaboration with the Politecnic University of Madrid, the aim of this study is to investigate new ways of vineyards conduction and the behavior of the plants with each system,  having into consideration the quality and quantity of the harvest and the extent of the costs in any case.

 

2010-2011

Viñas Atlánticas: Project promoted by the Pontevedra Provincial Council:

Bodegas Martin Códax and two other wineries in Salnés’ Valley take part in it. The project involves establishing a sensor net in Salnés’ region to get metorology details which let us know the state of diseases.
This information will be useful as a tool to reduce the use of treatments and chemical products in winemaking.
The main aim is to create an environmental management system which contributes to the sustainable development in viticulture activity thorough the following strategies:

Biodiversity protection

Reduction of carbon emissions

Sustainable working

Use of different trellis systems.

Use of different root stocks.

Different strategies using water to reduce the climate change

Different strategies of cultivation, channeled to the manage of the vineyard

Study of aromatic precursors and composition of albariño depending on the vineyard location, in order to divide vineyards in Salnés valley, D.O. Rías Baixas:

Politecnics University of Madrid, Vigo´s University an Bioligic mission of Galicia collaborate in this project.
