• Vineyard establishment (in association with a French company, we can provide you with a local, technical support from planting to winemaking)
• Soil regeneration and fertility
• Intervention on problematical plots (chlorosis, coulure, millerandage, salinity etc.)
• Replanting of vineyards
• Choice of varieties and rootstocks
• Expertise and technical assistance in winegrowing

• Management of damages caused by extreme weather conditions (drought, frost and hail)
• Virus attenuation
• Viticultural audit assignments

To study the best strategy for your estate, please contact us for further information.

During my career, my field observations led me to develop a system based on nutritional balance which is specifically designed for grapevine. Our results took us to the most famous wine regions in France (Champagne, Margaux, Pomerol, Saint-Emilion), Spain (Ribera del Duero, Rioja, Toro), Chile (Casablanca, Maipo, Rapel), United States (Napa Valley), Argentina (Mendoza), Italy…

My greatest joy is that my son Brice takes over in the same spirit that has always been driving me.

Jean-Pierre COUSINIE

After I graduated in agronomy, it was an obvious choice for me to join my father in the work which has brought him fulfilment for more than 30 years. He passed down his know-how, his ways of looking at things and his passion for viticulture.

The study of plant physiology and the experiments carried out in association with some of our customers allowed me to characterize more precisely the specific needs of varieties, rootstocks and to complement our product range.

With more than twenty years of experience as a consultant, I feel lucky to do this job and to collaborate with the best estates in France and all around the world.

Our French laboratory ensures high-precision results from our analyses, which are an essential prerequisite for a reliable, rigorous interpretation.

SOIL AND SUBSOIL ANALYSIS:
In our work, we often encounter mineral imbalances which deeply affect output potential. It is necessary to consider the physico-chemical composition of soils as a key factor in the choice of plant material or for the vegetative cycle.

LEAF ANALYSIS:
Mineral elements are at the heart of the plant’s life. An understanding of their dynamics allows us to anticipate some results of the vintage (blocked or delayed ripening, coulure, water deficiency).

GRAPE ANALYSIS:
Berry analyses give accurate information on the qualitative potential of the coming harvest. Thanks to our foliar range, they allow our customers to obtain a balance between the different kind of maturity (technological, phenolic, aromatic compounds…).

WOOD ANALYSIS:
Wood analyses reveal the history of the plant’s life. They also enable us to detect possible risks of toxicity.

OTHER ANALYSES:
On request, we can carry out analyses of microbial biomass (quantitative), biological activity (qualitative), dynamics of organic matter and differentiation of mineral clays.

We are thus able to create personalized formulations* based on our physico-chemical analyses, viticultural factors and your enological objectives.

The Méthode Cousinié works in synergy with the environment in improving the soil biological activity to obtain the best expression of terroirs.

PLANTING:
It is essential to favor a good nutritional balance to allow a harmonious development of young plants. Some nutrients are essential to this purpose (phosphorus, potash…) however it is important not to focus on the quantitative approach since many mineral blockages can hide the real dynamics of soils.

MONITORING:
Besides N, P, K, many mineral and trace elements are fundamental to the health of vine stocks. They act as activators, components of enzymes and they are the starting point of numerous biochemical reactions inside the plant itself.
Furthermore each variety has its own specific needs which is very important to consider for the regularity of their output and their qualitative potential.

*Some formulas can be used in organic farming in accordance with the regulations (UE) 2018/848, we respect fertilization standards NFU 44 051, NFU 42-001.

Our foliar range Cousifolia© allows you to adapt to any vintage and to improve its productivity (fructification, coulure, millerandage etc.) and its qualitative potential (ripeness, acidity, tannins, flavours etc.).

We also get very good results to limit the impact of extreme weather conditions (drought, frost, hail).

The selection of highly advanced components gives our products a naturally soft, well-balanced action. Tests carried out by two independent laboratories have determined:

• Foliage adhesion two to three times higher than with classic foliar products
• Assimilation within 2 hours following the application
• Metabolized in 48 hours with a fast leaf-fruit transit
• From to 2 to 3 weeks of effective action
• Improvement of the photosynthetic potential and the creation of nutritional reserves in the plants
• Respect of the microflora
