I was born two months after the 1947 vintage, memorable for the excellence in Barbera tastes. The fundamental decisions in my path have been taken thanks to excellent advisers that I have been able to listen, thus receiving incalculable profit. I have known and experienced the world of public research in national agriculture and abroad, I am happy to have caught the mark of my connatural. I tried to express the gratitude to my ancestors also through the commitment in the family business, a very important refreshment and source of many emotions.
Graduated in Agricultural Sciences in 1972, I immediately start my research activity at the Experimental Institute for Cereal Growing in Rome. Thanks to a CNR scholarship at the Plant Breeding Institute in Cambridge (UK), I work on a research project on the genetic resistance of cereals.
Back in Italy, I enter as an experimenter at the Experimental Institute for Cereals and subsequently at the Experimental Institute for Viticulture of Conegliano Veneto, Asti site, of which I become director in 1989. From May 2008 to October 2009, I am appointed director of the Research Unit for Table Grapes and Viticulture in the Mediterranean environment (Bari). Since December 2009, I am a manager at the Oenology Research Center of Asti until the end of 2012.
I have carried out research in various sectors: aspects of the management of the vineyard and plants, vegetative-productive balance, climatic trends and behavior of vines and rootstocks in relation to the environments, the biological system of the vineyard in its complexity. I become research manager for various projects and coordinator of the Labter project on sustainable viticulture in the Cinque Terre National Park; member O.I.L.B. (International Organization for Biological and Integrated Fight) S.I.G.A. (Italian Society of Agricultural Genetics), Academic at Italian Academy of Vine and Wine. I have made many technical and study trips: France – Switzerland – Germany – Austria – Hungary – Croatia – Spain – Portugal – Chile – South Africa – U.K. – U.S.A.
I am the author and co-author of over 90 technical-scientific publications in the wine sector. Many collaborations with Italian and foreign institutions, regional administrations, consortia, producer associations, private companies and sector companies. I have always been attentive to agricultural productions more in harmony with the rural world, with particular attention to management with organic methods. I consider it fundamental to rethink the way of doing viticulture and oenology in Italy, and I support the need for greater respect for environmental and ethical values. Among these, certainly the commitment to the good use of renewable energy resources.
My thought is linked to the fundamental value of earthly capital and the surrounding environment, and its optimal use to increase the health value of its fruits. I represent the sixth generation of winemakers in Costigliole d’Asti; I have been managing the wine project of Fattoria La Maliosa since January 2013.
The “Metodo Corino” (registered patent and registered trademark by Lorenzo Corino and Antonella Manuli) is a set of innovative agronomic processes for the production of table and wine grapes. The method focuses on the vitality of the soil and the health of the environment, producers and consumers.
Taken together these activities contribute to the growth of the sector with values that are not limited to the production of grapes and wine, but include the culture, lifestyle, landscape patrimony, longevity of the vineyard and asset value of the land, as well as a profit margin for producers.
The “Metodo Corino” makes targeted and innovative choices regarding the environmental conditions, vines and optimal cultivation techniques for vineyards that strongly wish to preserve the value of places and landscapes.
The grapes must come from a professional and sustainable management of the vineyard and must lean towards values of qualitative excellence and nutritional goodness. Cultivation is sustainable if it’s able to supply, with a certain regularity, products with a strong identity, while respecting the territory of origin.
This sustainability assessment is measured by at least two criteria: the biological quality of the soil (SBQ) and the Carbon Footprint (LCA-assessment) of the farm and its products. Furthermore, a vegetal-based cultivation cycle produced onsite is a fundamental choice.
In the transition from grape to wine, fermentation must take place naturally with yeast and indigenous bacteria. The subsequent processing of the wine in the cellar must be carried out with human expertise in obtaining wine. This must be done without any additives or invasive technology or the use of any chemical or physical intervention capable of modifying the origin and/or natural evolution of the wine, which must find its exclusive origin in the grape.
The GRAPE is the only component that should give rise to the future wine.
MAN is the craftsman and the architect of the vineyard and of wine as a wholesome and original product.
