L'archetipo | Greco Bianco

Pairs with a seafood tower. You know the fancy tower of oysters, cold-cracked crab, shrimp cocktail, urchin, clams, and bounty of the sea? You should chill this down and bring it to your next tower experience. If that’s not in the cards right now, drink with a tuna sandwich or any shrimp number you’re making tonight.

L'archetipo was founded by Francesco, the son of a grape farmer who attended university to become a passionate agronomist. In the 80’s Francesco converted his land to organic farming, but found that the land still lacked vitality.

In 2000, he implemented biodynamic farming according to Rudolf Steiner’s cultural legacy, but after a few years he realized that it still wasn't enough.

Francesco went further and finally implemented a sustainable agriculture, in which all synergies in the ecosystem are linked, known now as Synergistic Agriculture. This incorporates organic and biodynamic agricultures, and discourages plowing, which is considered detrimental to the ecosystem.

Francesco is now at the forefront of the sustainable agriculture movement in Italy, and believes, unlike popular misconception, that living beings are not in competition but, on the contrary, they are in synergy between each other.
