In 2019, they took the next step by introducing biodynamic methods into their production. This means an even stricter harmony with nature: the use of biodynamic preparations, compost, and reduced intervention in the winemaking process. Since the 2021 harvest, Altum proudly carries the <strong>Demeter biodynamic certification<\/strong>.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Winemaking Philosophy<\/strong><\/h2><p>Altum focuses on <strong>natural, biodynamic wines<\/strong>, crafted with spontaneous fermentation and no unnecessary additives. Their signature lies in experimenting with maceration \u2013 from a few days to several months \u2013 and in aging wines in <strong>amphorae, wooden barrels, and even egg-shaped vessels<\/strong>. All grapes are biodynamically certified, while clay and wooden containers used in the cellar give wines a unique natural texture and richness.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Altum Wines<\/strong><\/h2><p>Among the most popular labels are:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Altum Orange<\/strong> \u2013 a long-macerated white wine of amber-orange color, made from hand-picked, organically grown grapes.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Altum Sauvignon<\/strong> \u2013 an amber-hued macerated white wine, spontaneously fermented and aged for 23 months on fine lees: 2\/3 in acacia wood casks and 1\/3 in Slavonian oak barrique.
