Cover Story: With the presence of gaseous, aqueous, and solid phases, as well as every domain and kingdom of life, the four environmental compartments, namely air, water, land, and biota, meet each other in the soil to create a living environment with unique characteristics. Viticulture has been known to recognize this fact by celebrating wine as the most precious gift from the soil. However, viticulture often fails to preserve the health of this valuable base. Why it is important to take care of vineyard soils, what happens when they are not looked after, how they can be successfully cared for, and what doubts still persist to this end are the subject of this review.
