SYNOPSIS The most prestigious wines are made in the vineyard. Spanish viticulture is experiencing times of change, and the return to the terroir revives historical regions punished by abandonment. After the first part of Basajaun, focused on plant material, this documentary collects the testimonies of those winegrowers who, from rural Spain, fight every day for a beautiful landscape that refuses to disappear.
