A philosophy of sustainability
The family committed to a sustainable lifestyle by farming biodynamically, without the use of pesticides or fertilisers, by following the lunar phases to bottle the wines, by even producing their own photovoltaic energy. Legumes e grasses are grown between vines to promote biodiversity.
The grapes ferment with indigenous yeast, there is no filtration, no unnecessary intervention and since Cinzia developed an allergy to sulphites, most of their wines either have a very minimum amount or no added sulphur, very difficult to achieve in bigger size wineries apparently.
The wines do not follow the market trends, Cellario’s family’s goal is to let the wine express naturally without them interfering.
“The winemaker is simply a spectator who watches a miracle of the nature happen, every year it’s different, every year it’s unique.”
