Francesco Cirelli believes the pursuit of quality and sustainability begins in the vineyards where his objective is to bring out the best of every single vine. The use of herbicides and chemical fertilisers or any other product that does not conform to organic farming is banned. The fertility of the soil is managed through organic fertilisation and the use of Biodynamic Preparation 500 Cow Horn manure. The grapes are handpicked and selected.
Each year he hopes that he can harvest the finest grapes and intervene as little as possible on what mother nature has offered up. The equipment used has been kept to a bare minimum while and his preferred vessels a terracotta amphora. He goes out of his way to maintain top quality in every step of his work to offer you the best result the fruit of the region can offer whilst displaying its distinctive characteristics.
