The Montechiaro Estate is certified Organic Farming since 2010.
Organic grape-growing is arduous and requires more hours of manual labor. Since 2010, the fruit of our commitment has been healthy, beautiful grapes. Organic vineyards teem with life. Their robust roots dig deep and they express a real connection with the land.
Organic farming is the means but quality is the end.
Organic winemaking is the natural culmination of a quest to achieve the greatest expression of land.
Respect for nature is the best tool for obtaining grapes rich with life and expressive potential.
The balance between humankind and nature is at the heart of wines that have a deep connection to the land where they are made.
Such wines are unique and cannot be reproduced elsewhere.
