Philosophy

7500 Vines. After all these years in Their company, we have started knowing them one by one. Assigning a name was a spontaneous act, so as to be able to distinguish that precise row and, in that row, the frailest or most generous vine. To assign a name to something, to someone is a way to free oneself of solitude. Thus, our already much-crowded family life was enriched by Them: green, bare, red or yellow, embellished with bunches of grapes, dressed up according to the season and deeply-rooted in our life. 7500 Vines. We worked with vigour, but following the slow and impenetrable rhythms of nature. And we waited for the outcomes… Perhaps, “big” projects, wisely interpreted, help to save our hearts; but usually one obtains the best outcomes through the patience of the little things, following paths that pass through the “beauty”. However, to reach an objective, maybe even without naming it, the first thing one needs to do is to listen. And we listened… We listened to nature, learning how to use its words and syntax, listening to the strength and the vibes of a rumbling and generous mother earth. And, at last, we have shared this waiting. This sharing happens every day: with everyone who arrives here, in this little piece of Italian land; with those who drink a toast to life; with those who recognise this path, drinking in silence our wine and listening.
