SOUL BIO AND SOUL GREEN

Dream of a wine and a landscape that transmit authenticity and care of the land. A light breath to immerse yourself in the natural wine landscapes. This idea has the certified organic agriculture in the six estates  of Firriato Winery in Sicily. A model of good agricultural practices suited to the environmental sustainability, the identity and the protection of the terroir. Firriato, once again, he has obtained a renewal for the certification of compliance of their farming activities to the EU Regulation 834/07 / ECwith regard to organic production. A certification that shows the research of a healthy relationship with the nature of the territories in which they insist the estates and vineyards, reducing the environmental impact on the ecosystem of the rural setting. Under organic farming does not use “chemistry”, products made with synthetic substances that characterize the conventional agronomic management techniques. No fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, pesticides. None of these “intrusions industrial” is permitted

Nature is the best ally in the management of the vineyards, for Firriato: the important thing is you know it, interpret it and accommodate it in their vocations. For this there is no release of waste into the soil, air and water, preserving soil fertility, preserving the ecosystem. It ‘a mix of experience, passion and attention that Firriato asking herself, in the management of the vineyards. Each row is known, each floor has been designed, every interaction between grape variety, climate and exposure has been documented and processed to achieve the maximum value of this unique example that Firriato called Terroir Authentic. Under organic management, the vineyard is more exposed to risks and takes time, attention, preventive care. Only, in case of need, it intervenes with natural methods and techniques of cultivation that follow the strict specification for the organic certification. The Natural Wine Style Firriato is a point of reference for those who understand the value of balance in the synergistic relationship between man and earth to protect biodiversity.

The crowning achievement of our dream

The Organic line, the last born in Firriato’s house, is the achievement of a production philosophy which is focussed on certified organic agriculture. This is a demanding decision which the historical Sicilian brand wanted to distinguish itself and improve the competitiveness with. Three new labels that, once again, prove that the keystone is a production philosophy which respects the territory and the Nature. Syrah, Nero d’Avola and Catarratto, cultivated in a certiphied organic way, in which all the procedures, from the vine to the winery, are carefully controlled and respect a precise and serious protocol. The final result is represented by the three Cæles label, dedicated to the most attentive consumers, the ones that love to conjugate drinking well and respect fo the Nature. This are the wines belongong to the line: Cæles DOC Sicilia (Catarratto), Cæles IGT Terre Siciliane (Syrah), Cæles IGT Terre Siciliane (Nero d’Avola), Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Cerasuola & Nocellara).
