Wines crafted in nature's harmony
Founded in 1997 by the visionary Pasquale Forte, Podere Forte exemplifies a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. Forte, a distinguished electronic engineering pioneer, shifted his focus to agriculture driven by a deep passion for biodynamics. His vision was to revive the ancient Roman concept of 'cortes,' where humans, plants and animals coexist in perfect harmony. The winery is renowned not only for its exceptional wines but also for its thriving olive grove and diverse array of animals. The “Sistema Forte” seamlessly integrates time-honoured practices with cutting edge technology, creating a self sustaining, biodynamic haven. Podere Forte’s dedication to environmental stewardship and its celebration of the land’s natural rhythms set it apart as a premier example of innovative, integrated agriculture.
