『我們的葡萄酒哲學就在葡萄園裡』（Our wine production philosophy comes from the vineyard），酒莊主人Claudio Icardi如是說，使用了『自然動力法』以及『有機農法』，不使用化學物質，這需要投入更多的人力去整頓與照顧葡萄園，跟隨季節的自然變換與當年氣候，來決定施作時機，Claudio表示：『這樣獲得的葡萄酒，非常能展現地塊的風味』，也讓葡萄酒保存自然風貌；義大利酒指南Gambero Rosso在嘗試他們的酒後，稱讚其『自然、有趣且極富變化』（In his vineyard there is absolute respect for the natural balance of the fragile ecosystem...the reange of wines is interesting and varied.）

雖然觸角在亞洲地區不多，但Icardi酒莊早以多果香聞名歐美（highly fruity wines），極度的清澄和優雅，從新年份就展現平穩的均衡感，這也是酒莊最希望表現的東西。

在品質優異的情況下，酒莊得以有財源，將葡萄園慢慢擴展至現在的75公頃，現在Claudio的妹妹Maria Grazia也回到家族事業中幫忙，負責打理酒窖管理以及銷售，她很慶幸家族擁有這麼優良的地塊，而且在杜絕化學藥品的努力下，土地非常健康，她拍胸保證說，現在生長出來的葡萄與百年前一樣自然，輕易就能釀成果味迷人的美酒。

義大利佳釀指南Luca Maroni：Icardi酒莊無疑釀造出義大利最讓人享受的酒款，幾乎所有的酒都果香四溢，表現亮麗卻柔和，這多虧酒莊培養的成熟葡萄果實，酒的酚類物質非常豐富，酒質鮮活且清澈辛香，非常優異！

Icardi undoubtedly has the best selection of enjoyable wines in Italy. There's fruit in almost all of the lables. The wines shine with smoothness - thanks to perfectly ripened grapes - the with freshness. Oxidation is virtually non-existent thank to well-controled aging. The wines' extract bases are phenomenally rich and the fruit is enveloping yet lively - laced with a magnificaltly clean spiciness that comes from always renewing the wood barrels in which they are kept for only brief periods. The result is an excellent labels.

"Our wines are produced by means of organic and biodynamic systems. Our production requires special care and attention, together with respectful compliance with nature and its cycles, and climate and weather conditions.

Resulting wines stand out for their natural striking scents that vary as much as the terroirs they come from and the persons who cultivate them.

Our password – integral preservation of vine characteristics".

Icardi style is renowned worldwide – highly fruity wines, whose style is characterized by extreme refinement, cleanliness and elegance, and whose flavour is balanced from the very beginning. A balance achieved in the most important wines as well, whose peculiarity may be appreciated in the short period.
