ON NATURAL WINE
To make and to choose to drink natural wine is a decisive way of life. It is a choice that echoes many thoughts and actions. For us, to make this wine is a form of activism against the industrialization of this precious liquid. To make a natural wine today may seem a bit of a paradox; it is a revolutionary choice almost anarchistic, but simultaneously it is a conservative one that links to thousands of years. In that sense it is also on the cusp of an oenological Avant Garde.

For us, the art of winemaking crosses the borders of architecture, poetry and nature. The aim has been to obtain a grape that is alive and healthy, and to indulge in the natural processes of good winemaking that converts grapes into an honest and expressive wine. We believe our wine to be an expression of the earth and the soil in which it has grown.

Mario Soldati in Vino al Vino


The Taste, Art, Architecture of wine

The soil helps to articulate the taste of the wine. The decision to choose natural wine brings with it an extraordinary universe – full of flavour, unexpected and giving new sensations that seduce those who are curious.

To put yourself in front of a natural wine beckons an open mind – like any ‘opera di arte ‘(piece of artwork) such as an opera, music, painting etc. In this sense, winemaking is an artform and we realize the hardwork that this artwork has taken to be realised.

The architecture of wine. The construction of values, of taste. Natural wine is an undefined and explorative path. The building elements are found in nature, in the grapes, in the microorganisms of the soil. They build what eventually gets poured into your glass. Our role has simply been to give them the optimal conditions to thrive in, to be alive and in which to survive favourably and express themselves.
