One of the vineyards from which the exceptional product of the Organic Farming VASARI comes.
The happy geographic position of hills, on which the vineyards extend, contribute to guarantee the authentic character of the wine in the respect of the atmosphere and the tradition.
Organic Farming
Nature creates and re-invents itself -as
Horace's poem goes.
Today 2000 years later, I believe that nature will be not compromised again.
In the name of economic development,the bulldozer destroyed the land and the hills. They ripped open mountain, raped it of its treasures and emasculated the landscape.
Nature cannot re-invent itself! In agriculture, they have propagated veinous practises. Radioactive waste is the ultimate expression of the ills and wastefulness of the consumer society. As someone once said: Enough! I want to eat but I want this to be achieved through sustainable development.
And so organic farming became the point of departure. It recognises that the land can no longer support thousands of tons of chemical fertlisers. Our water cannot absorb excessive quantities of nitrates. We don't want to use synthetic chemicals which have wiped out the birds and the flowers! This is organic farming-a clean form of agriculture which creates foods which are not contaminated with poisons.
To think that even Lucrèzio was right! This force for optimism has taken root again after 2000 years as Ruggero Vasari predicted in his play ''RAUN'' where the Child acted out the part of Nature who, violated and over-powered, by the will of man, still managed to hold fast to his spirit and to bounce back.
With the same violence, the same rapacity and inexorability, Nature snatches back control of its true direction.
The method of farming organically is controlled by European Union regulations with which all Member States must comply.
In Italy, organic farming is controlled by organisations authorised by the Ministry of Agriculture
L'Azienda Agricola Vasari has been registered as an organic farm since 1991 and is controlled by Suolo e Salute - the Land & Health Commission a control body authorised by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture.
All products from the estate-wine, oil, citrus fruit and all the other products-only receive the organic farming certificate after detailed analysis confirming that they do not contain any synthetic chemicals, pesticides, hormonoes, nitrates etc etc etc.
Moreover, no animal products, whether natural or synthetic, are used either in the cultivation of the land or in the production processes and therefore our wines, oil and other products are suitable for vegetarians
