The Philosophy: VitiForest and Living Soils
The estate’s approach goes far beyond standard organic farming. While the vineyards have been Ecocert and Demeter certified since 2013, David Koeberle’s vision is centered on the concept of VitiForest. By planting 280 trees per hectare—including perennials, fruit trees, and hedges—the estate has created a true plant symbiosis.
The goal is a self-renewing ecosystem where the soil is never ploughed. Instead, the rows remain grassed and mulched, preserving the microbiological life of the earth and allowing the vines to thrive in a vibrant, living environment.
