Prefering to minimize the use of mechanical farming, they use Comtois horses, Dinette and Biscotto, for ploughing and transport, promoting biodiversity in the vineyard and also only using the indigenous grapes of the region. Tenuta Olianas employ a wide range of techniques in vinification including the use of natural yeasts and amphorae thus striving for a balance between modern and traditional winemaking. The estate is currently in Biodynamic conversion and will be certified in time for the 2023 harvest.
