This means treating the vine and the surrounding environment as a whole, which is inseparable. Biodiversity is crucial in this system, where every living organism and microorganism plays a key role at its level. In line with the principles of biodynamics - just like humans - they strive to develop the strongest immune system in the vineyard, instead of just treating the symptoms.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eInstead of chemical sprays, herbicides, and fertilizers, they use natural preparations for plant protection.

Because they believe and go the biodynamic way. They think that animals give a soul to a holistic farm and closing also the circle of sustainability in terms of own produced manure and food. The biggest responsibility is animal welfare. But first of all it’s a great feeling having them around, they make every day a bit better! Therefore since 2020, winged and four-legged colleagues have joined them on the exciting journey towards biodynamics.

Behind the Austrian philosopher Rudolf Steiner's system there is a complex, holistic approach that assumes that the entire estate is a unified whole. It is not just about animals and cultivated plants. In addition to landscape features (meadows, forest patches, pastures, wildlife), there is also the wider environment, up to the stars: the farmer takes cosmic rhythms such as the moon into account when planting, winemaking and carrying out livestock operations.Instead of chemical sprays, herbicides, and fertilizers, they use natural preparations for plant protection.

Winemaking: Organic viniculture, Herbicide-free farming. Made from hand-picked Zenit. Spontaneously fermented, zero SO2 added, bottled while fermentation, clean fermenting juice, unfiltered.
Complex nose: lime and floral hints reminiscent of spring, grapefruit, ripe yellow apples, apple chips mingling with hints of herbaceous grasses. The intense wine-yeast contact during the winemaking process gives this sparkling wine not only yeasty, rye bread notes but also a silky texture. Its smoothness is subtle, soothing the tongue with a slight creaminess on tasting balances the sparkling wine’s lively acidity and refreshing astringency on a medium finish.
Food: Excellent aperitif solo or how about pairing it with a good lemon and cottage cheese pancake.
