Frequently Asked Questions
“Our Wine, Our Method”
The vineyards are constantly monitored to naturally prevent the onset of diseases. When intervention is necessary, only copper- and sulfur-based products are used, completely avoiding herbicides, pesticides, or chemical fertilizers, in order to preserve the soil’s biodiversity.
Every task in the vineyards—from pruning and tying to leaf thinning—is carried out by hand. This approach allows for a gentle interaction with the vines and helps maintain the natural balance of the ecosystem.
The harvest is carried out entirely by hand, carefully selecting the best grape clusters. The grapes are placed in small 20 kg crates to prevent crushing and are promptly transported to the winery, ensuring maximum freshness and quality.
Fermentation is monitored daily to ensure a natural and controlled process. Clarification is carried out through static decanting, minimizing the addition of sulfites to produce a wine that is authentic and respectful of the grapes from which it comes.
