Castle of Meleto has always believed in biodiversity and with the conference "Wine and the Forest - Trees that benefit vineyards" addresses a highly relevant topic, posing a question: how can the forest positively influence the vineyard by creating a perfect ecosystem? The answer comes from Stefano Lorenzi, arborist, and Luca Mamprin, forest doctor: "The forest creates the ideal living conditions for a vineyard: trees shade the rows, preventing the grapes from scorching, a major problem in the last twenty years, ensuring constant humidity, dampening the force of the wind, and reducing the impact of hail. They also allow for a better understanding of the vineyard's potential by creating a richness of species that inhabit it and developing many more forms of natural yeasts on the grapes, improving the product.”
