As seen in the adjacent document (click to enlarge), we began in 05/10/2007 to use only organic production methods. After three years under the surveillance of the organic certification group, Ecocert, we will be able to claim the title AB (organic agriculture).
To produce organically contributes to a lasting world preserving the biodiversity and the soils’ fertility but it is also optimizes the maturity and obtains a better quality organoleptique (taste, aroma, texture).
In practice, organic wine guarantees the natural treatment of the vines and soils, without pesticides or herbicides. Therefore, we protect our vines only with natural products such as sulfur and copper sulfate against different types of mildew. Already for years we have practiced weeding and working the soil between the rows. Which removes the need for all toxic chemicals and on the other hand allows for the vines to regulate themselves and maintain reasonable, more optimal water demands.
This choice, in line with winemaking, is motivated by the desire to obtain a high quality grape with a perfect maturity: essential elements for acquiring a pleasing, pure fruit flavor in a wine.
