Vineyard of Cascina degli Ulivi

Cascina degli Ulivi was conceived as a diverse natural farm in which winegrowing, food production, animals and people form a single whole. Stefano Bellotti's philosophy centres on self-reliant farming, living soils and minimal dependence on technology. The wines are made to preserve the energy of grape and place, without shaping flavour towards a uniform style.

The estate near Novi Ligure is one of Italy's pioneers of biodynamic agriculture and has worked according to natural principles since the 1980s. Alongside Gavi and Monferrato wines, the farm includes a kitchen garden, bakery, agriturismo and educational activities. The wines are often spontaneously fermented and offered without added sulphites; Demeter is listed as the certifying organisation.
