Manifesto Cantine Lunae

We believe that wine is the fruit of nature and man: of his doing. We believe that wine is a living matter, the result of physical actions and subtle energies that form its structure, its character, to make it the image of the territory of origin and of the winemaking tradition of man in his own place. We at Lvnae adhere to this way of doing things, in every phase of our work. Work that is made of respect and quality of relationships.

Relationships with nature

We know that every place expresses its “genius loci”, through its nature. For this reason at Lvnae we enhance and cultivate exclusively, native-traditional vines. We work for the maximum expression of those that are the image vines of our territory, (such as Vermentino) and the enhancement and cultivation of vines at risk of extinction, (such as Vermentino Nero). We listen to the expressions of the individual “terroir”. Plots that in Liguria in the Colli di Luni: for the modest and fractioned extensions, for the variations in altitude, each one gives its own nuances and accents, giving us precise indications for the constitution of as many wines, respecting the individual peculiarities.

Human relations

Wine is the fruit of cooperation between nature and man, for us the search for harmony in nature is equal to the search for harmony of human resources that work with nature, because human energies enter directly into the formative process of wine. We at Lvnae research, in the field as in the cellar, with the professionals who work with us, even in the distribution sector, we seek the beauty of the relationship. The welcome between generations and professionalism. We want the meeting between knowledge and sensitivity. Because we know that nothing in nature is a "planning", that wine is not a chemical formula, or a segment of "marketing". But the fruit of complicity, of interpretation, of tradition. Of an oral culture matured by experience. A constant balanced relationship with nature, a respect towards it that is gratitude.

Relationships in the cellar... the wine

Wine in the cellar is a living matter: it grows, it transforms, it shows its character. Expressions specific to each harvest, year after year. We indulge these nuances by accompanying it with simple vinifications, we help it without forcing it. Without intervening in its essence with programmatic modifications. So that once in the bottle it can be alive, unique. The real witness of our territory, the Colli di Luni, of Lvnae, and of our work. All this makes us move, and do every day. The awareness that beauty is also good. That the gesture, the love that binds us to this land cannot be "betrayed" or compromised, or disregarded
