Many wineries were established directly under organic principles, without a conversion phase, contributing to a coherent and advanced production model.<\/p>\n<p>In Montecucco, sustainability goes beyond agricultural practices and extends to a broader vision that includes biodiversity protection, landscape conservation, responsible use of natural resources, and ongoing agronomic research and innovation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1778927180705{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5281&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_content_width=&#8221;grid&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1755638431379{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-offset-2 vc_col-lg-8 vc_col-md-offset-1 vc_col-md-10 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5304&#8243; img_size=&#8221;200&#215;176&#8243; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Within this context, also the <strong>Biodistretto del Montecucco<\/strong> (Montecucco Organic District) was established to strengthen and coordinate sustainable practices at a territorial level. It represents a virtuous model of integrated development involving agricultural businesses, institutions and local communities, with the aim of promoting organic farming, enhancing local production, preserving landscape identity and supporting a circular, territory-based economy.<\/p>\n<p>Montecucco stands as one of the most advanced wine territories in Italy in terms of sustainability, where environment, production and community coexist in balance.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_btn css=&#8221;&#8221; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fdistrettobiologicomontecucco.it|title:Visit%20website&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space]<div class=\"mkdf-image-gallery  mkdf-ig-carousel-type mkdf-three-columns mkdf-tiny-space    \">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-ig-slider mkdf-owl-slider\" data-number-of-items=\"3\" data-enable-loop=\"yes\" data-enable-autoplay=\"yes\" data-slider-speed=\"3000\" data-slider-speed-animation=\"400\" data-slider-padding=\"no\" data-enable-navigation=\"no\" data-enable-pagination=\"no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mkdf-ig-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"529\" height=\"831\" src=\"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vigna3.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vigna3.png 529w, https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vigna3-191x300.png 191w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 529px) 100vw, 529px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mkdf-ig-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"529\" height=\"831\" src=\"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vigna4.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vigna4.png 529w, https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vigna4-191x300.png 191w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 529px) 100vw, 529px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mkdf-ig-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"529\" height=\"831\" src=\"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/raccolta.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/raccolta.png 529w, https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/raccolta-191x300.png 191w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 529px) 100vw, 529px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row row_content_width=&#8221;grid&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1543501743589{padding-top: 150px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-offset-2 vc_col-lg-8 vc_col-md-offset-1 vc_col-md-10 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Sustainability is one of the founding pillars [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"full-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5164","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5164","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5164"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5164\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5311,"href":"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5164\/revisions\/5311"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.consorziomontecucco.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5164"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
