Thanks for those replies, yes I am aware of many of the issues and
critiques. However I am looking for people who actually do it.

We have no personal experience of it but some years ago, in Provence,
visited and bought wine from Chateau Romanin which was then working to
the principles you're interested in. * I don't know if they do know but
it might be worth you're taking a look. *Certainly, I would never scoff
at such things personally. *I think there's a lot we're too complacent

I am very used to my old neighbour Marie-Louise, the widow of the
farmer next door, checking the calendar to check on the phases of the
moon. *Her son was there one time when I asked a question about
something agricultural and he got up and checked the calendar; yes
they really do adhere to it.

Do they wear necklaces of garlic and bathe in the pool of Our Lady of Lost
Secateurs?
