Despite the economic
crisis reaching now all of the growing area, we
maintained our intended path following our inspirations
of the land and our heart.
Our respect of nature
and the purest expression of the growth made us evolve
in the way that progressively gained recognition to us
in the last years: Biodynamic farming.
At home I have always
seen decisions taken in the respect of planetary
rhythms, according to an empirical and ancient culture.
My Engineer studies taught me otherwise, to only trust
in “modern science”, which strained relation with my
family elders who did not believe modern science had all
the answers. My
grand-parents are not here anymore, to tell them that their
vision of agriculture, certainly physically strenuous
but logical and respectful of life, was the good one.
We got back in touch
with the past of listening to nature and the vine
stocks. Ever since, we see our vineyard differently.
Each weed transmits to us a message from the soil
by its presence or its absence.
Our viticulture has
been reorganised to purify it from all useless gestures
or actions, often coming from bad decisions such as
green harvest or leaf thinning.
Disease protection is
made with infusions of plants we pick up by ourselves in
nature.
The wines too have
this evolution to more truth.
In this approach we
have found great serenity despite a harder
implementation than our previous ways.
Our greatest
satisfaction comes from our customers that are more and
more numerous and now trust in our wines.
It allows us to continue going forward.
