Vigneti Tardis
Italy
Created in the summer of 2017 by London sommelier Jack Lewens and Italian winemaker Bruno De Conciliis, Vigneti Tardis strives to produce organic wines as naturally as possible.
Lewens (who co-owns Shoreditch’s Michelin starred Leroy) did his first harvest with De Conciliis in 2007 and has been back every year since. Upon inheriting his family vineyard in 1996, De Conciliis bucked conventional, chemical agricultural methods and instead introduced organic and biodynamic techniques. He also committed to minimalising environmental impact by introducing solar panels in 2007, and the winery has been energy self-sufficient ever since.
The Vigneti Tardis duo champion local grape varieties, and all wines are made with native yeasts and without unnecessary sulphur. Their hands-off, patient method produces wines with a conscience; each one is expressive, elegant, and individual.
