Tirelli Vini - Tirelli Andrea
I am the custodian of about 4 hectares of vineyards in the Tortona hills, in Piedmont. I began the fascinating profession of winemaker in 2002, after making the decision to go back to basics. The earth.
As a symbol of my company I have chosen the very ancient Triskele
Celtic symbol that represents the elements, earth, water and air, united
from energy in a dynamic swirl from the inside out.
This symbol embodies my idea of wine and agriculture: the
my goal is in fact to interpret nature and what
offers to bottle quality wines, wholesome, genuine and
accessible to all.
In my vineyards there are only native traditional vines
Piedmontese both white and red. I work the vineyard methodically
biodynamic, a form of agriculture that allows you to enrich the
land that is cultivated, to respect the natural balance of the environment e
allows plants to resist adversity more easily
In the cellar, I vinify the grapes that I harvest naturally in compliance with the times necessary for transformation into wine: only indigenous grape yeasts, limited use of sulphites, no technological interventions as anyone who enters my cellar can easily see. My wines are born from this long, careful and exciting work.
My wines reflect the place where they were born, the Piedmont hills of
Alessandria, the Tortona hills: heterogeneous soil, clayey, calcareous and an extraordinary microclimate.
