The remarks of Prof. Diego Tomasi, a viticulturist and friend, summarise this winery’s approach to producing award-winning Extra Dry wines: ‘To obtain the best results from the grapes, the vine must find its perfect functional balance, guaranteed by the agricultural techniques, that supports the natural cycle of the plant without forcing it. Understanding and defining the environment and the soil and climatic factors is the pivotal point on which Fasol Menin have based their growing techniques. Each year they fine-tune their process to take account of the vagaries of the season, the condition of the vineyard, and the vine stock. Their intervention is never sweeping or crude; rather they seek a regular and harmonious development of the vineyard, while fully respecting the environment.’
