THE SOIL and the VINEYARD

Soil fertility

Every geographic area has different climatic and morphological characteristics. In order to manage a vineyard in a balanced and productive manner, it is necessary to take preliminary decisions on working the soils, from the green manuring to the water management, to the methods of intervening on the soil.

Strategic choices

 We carefully study the vocation of the soil, evaluating the potential options, including the costs of individual wine producing operations. Revitalizing old vineyards or planting new ones from scratch? We evaluate pros and cons and then we make a decision, together with our customer.

Suckering and pruning

From the first cuts to the management of the adult plants, pruning is an element of vital importance. But no less relevant are maintenance, improvement or recovery of old forms of training (Guyot, alberate, cordon trained, double curtain, Sylvos).

Canopy management

Vertical shoot positioning, topping, stripping and fruit thinning: we ensure a comprehensive canopy management thanks to our long-lasting experience and know-how.

Pest management 

We ensure pest and disease control in vineyards and establish from time to time the adequate defence measures to be taken. The intervention thresholds are evaluated according to the careful observation of the evolution of the pathogens and the phases of development of the grapes. Preference is given to an integrated biological management, respectful of the environment and with zero residue.

Ripening of the grapes

The correct assessment of the ripening of the grapes is a moment that is as critical as it is fundamental.  We expertly support our customers from the pre-harvest sampling to grape tasting. The data resulting from the analyses are interpreted in order to elaborate the most suitable harvesting schedule.

Optimizing work flows 

We provide constant assistance in the logistical and structural planning and in the management of work flows for the various seasons. Process times are monitored with audited qualitative and quantitative criteria.

Thinking of wine in the vineyard

 We assist our customers in making the best decision concerning the oenological destination of the grapes from individual vines, through the study and comprehension of the natural potential of the same.

Giving birth to a wine 

The wine-making process is defined according to the raw material available. We select the method that will guarantee the best quality, including the alternative between classic and Charmat methods of Spumante. We prefer vinification with no allergens and with low doses of sulphites.

Aging, management and assemblage of wines

 We plan the shelf life of wine in the cellar according to the objectives established: from the best aging and assemblage methods, to the ideal conditions for bottling.

Cellar management

 The cellar is a business structure based on two principles: quality and profit. As a consequence, each aspect of the cellar is subjected to a strict analysis to elaborate the most efficient management system (logistics, human resources, products, costs flows…); then it must be monitored constantly.

Positioning the wine on the market 

The wine must be positioned on the market in the best way possible in order to perceive its quality and the consequential economic value correctly. We assist our customers from the selection of the most suitable bottle, to impactful packaging, up to the defining of the identity of the product, including the study on its potential longevity.
