Through biologically/ecologically orientated cultivation methods, the ecosystem is brought into a natural state of health and harmony through cooperation with nature. This promotes biodiversity (variety of species) and enables the avoidance of pesticides and GMOs (genetically modified organisms) in soil and water. Regenerative methods have the potential to reverse climate change by sequestering carbon in the soil and removing it from the atmosphere. There is great consistency with the principles and methods of organic viticulture.
