Waiting for the harvest: emotions and silence in the vineyards of Abruzzo

Just a few more weeks…
It won’t be long now.
You can feel it in the vineyard: harvest time is near.
The grapes are almost ready, the air has changed, and the silence carries a sound we know well.
Every day, we go to see them.
We touch them with our eyes before our hands.
We taste.
We wait.
It’s not time yet.
But almost.

And the waiting becomes an emotion.
A mix of anticipation, gratitude, and respect.
Because every harvest is unique.
It’s the end of a cycle and the beginning of a new dream.
We’ve done so much: pruning, thinning, natural treatments,working under the sun, time dedicated to every single vine.
And now, all that’s left is trust.
In just a few weeks, everything will begin.
And like every year, it will be a new emotion to share.
