From this winery
"Every time I find myself motivating the luxuriance of my rows of vines, I try to make the understand what it means to get in tune with one's own vineyards and work only when needed. Starting from the conviction that everything starts from the root, the The first thing to keep in mind is soil management because viticulture is starting to take off. from there. Not to do does not mean not knowing and not watching over our rows, but intervene in the vineyard only when necessary.

This explains our choice of minimize interference with the vineyard's spontaneous flora and fauna by incentivising with self-produced seeds in the company the grassing and postponing the as much as possible the mowing after flowering so that the bees can be present in our company can do their pollination work.

We have a large responsibility for the environment as a whole and we are convinced that only recognizing the value of all our actions, we can work respecting it.

That's why our philosophy is to intervene in the workings, in the management of water resources and vegetation only when the vineyard needs our support, in perfect balance with the environment. Balance which also manifests itself in the effort to create or rather return, step step by step to a complete company, where flora and fauna coexist in synergy". (Andrea Mantengoli) Read more
