– and in the meteorological calendar, it will arrive on Sunday. For us biodynamic winegrowers, seasonal thinking and action are important, and we experience the seasons intensively.
There are still cool, clear mornings in the vineyard, and when the sun is on the horizon, we are beginning to look forward to what lies ahead.
The power of summer can also be felt here at the winery: we look to the future with courage . (Almost) everyone is talking about the poly crisis at the moment and it is difficult not to get caught up in it. But we are taking a different path, and we are doing so very consciously.
We are thinking a lot about the future and recognize more and more that the path of biodynamic viticulture that we embarked on 20 years ago has led to regenerative thinking and action. This is how we face up to our responsibility to work in a sustainable, regenerative, resource-conserving and constructive way.
In spring, we planted over 200 trees in some of our vineyards to ensure greater biodiversity. This is called Vitiforst and our aim is to restore and re-create a part of the vine’s original habitat.
And so we are also taking pencil and paper to let you all know that we are not just planting vines, picking grapes and making good wine here.
In future, we want to create space together for more regenerative thinking and action, not just planting trees and vines, but also ideas to create positive change together. In our mind this is particularly important for all of us in order to face challenges and use them to our advantage in the current overall climate.
We are looking forward to what lies ahead, together we want to break new ground. Our “Forum-Regenerative” is in it’s inception and we are looking forward to sharing more with you soon.
We would love to hear your ideas and thoughts.
Here’s to a beautiful and (bio)diverse future!
