L'archetipo | ‘Susumante’ Sparkling Rosé

Delicious with cheese and charcuterie, and all the classic accoutrements. Much like a light, dry Lambrusco, this wine is low in tannins, with a delicate fruit character that pairs nicely with anything salty, creamy, or zesty – salami, cheese, and pickled goodies.

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.
