  a philosophy that sees the soil, the plants, ' the insects that feed on 
  them, the animals that live there, the people that pick, press and ferment 
  the grapes and the juice in the tank itself as part of a living system, 
  influenced by the weather, the gravitational pull of the Moon, even the 
  movements of the stars.
