Our crops, in biodynamic agriculture, arise from the need to support and support the vine project, that is, the planting of the first Riesling vineyard in the Apuan Alps.
All agricultural productions are certified as organic by ICEA.
It is very difficult to obtain certification for Maestà della Formica preserves, since there are almost always wild ingredients that are difficult to certify.
In addition to the lands in Careggine, the company has lands in the localities of Campo in the municipality of Gallicano, Roccalberti in the municipality of Camporgiano, Cascio in the municipality of Molazzana, Antisciana in the municipality of Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, where there are fruit crops , olives and vines.

A lo que nos referimos con viticultura Biodinámica y Orgánica
The moon in relation to the earth and its sidereal cycles, the biodynamic agricultural calendar helps the farmer know the right time to prune, fertilize and harvest.
No herbicides are used and the vegetation is allowed to grow freely between the rows of the vines.
Natural fertilizers are made with animal excrement that is introduced into cow horns and buried to later dynamize them in water and apply it to the vineyard.
Organic fertilizers are used
as compost, manure and
other natural materials to enrich the soil and provide the nutrients necessary for the growth of vines.
Techniques are implemented to prevent soil erosion, such as planting vegetative covers between the rows of vines and applying minimal or no tillage practices.
During the winemaking process, chemical additives are avoided and the handling of the wine is minimized. The use of natural yeasts and the reduction of sulfites are encouraged.
