The winegrower's passionate task embarks him down
a life-long path, where his every gesture, from
the vine to the wine, requires perfection and spiritual
implication. The choice of grape variety, the orientation,
the planting, and then the long years of caring
for the vineyard, culminate in producing the long-awaited
fruit we have the honour of ennobling into wine.
Indissociable from the passion and love for our
work, this biochemical transformation calls |
|
for
respect and admiration for
nature, climate, and for all those who
sewed wheat in the surrounding fields,
trod the grapes, preceding us from the
age of self-sufficiency to modern times,
bequeathing a magnificent heritage and
the essential gestures which are the very
origin of our rural life and civilisation.
The finesse and diversity of our wines today,
are more than the product of our vineyard and
our labour, they are also the fruits of
our past.
