Who am I

Founder / owner: Filip J. Van de Catsye

Oenologist & Olive Agronomist

From a young age, I was fascinated by the beauty that nature has to offer. Add a layer of history to that, and I’m completely captivated. That’s how, over a decade ago, I decided to give my life a new direction—one that brought my deep-rooted passion for wine and olives to the surface.

I’ve always been intrigued by the unique and the hidden potential in things. As a television director, I was able to explore and express this passion throughout a 25-year career, both in my home country and abroad.

Back then, it was through people; today, I rediscover the same potential and principle in nature… in the noble forms of wine and olive oil.

The Wine-project

La Terra Eterna stands for sustainable wine projects, both for professional and private use, with deep respect for people and nature.

As an independent oenologist, I collaborate with both established wineries (lage scale) and private clients (boutique). My expertise lies primarily in cool-climate viticulture, with a geographical focus on Belgium, the Netherlands, Northern France, and England. For larger wineries, I offer both consultancy and a hands-on, on-site approach, contributing directly to vineyard management and winemaking processes.

In parallel, I support private individuals as an independent boutique winegrower, guiding the creation of small, personal vineyard projects for private use. Each collaboration begins with an online introduction and project presentation, ensuring a tailored and thoughtful approach aligned with the client’s vision.

The Olive Oil-project

La Terra Eterna - located in the south of Tarragona / Spain- produces Limited Premium EVOO Organic Olive Oil -Bio CCPAE - Certified- harvested from ancient, even millennial old olive trees in the Catalan region of Montsia, Tarragona.

By honoring the tradition and cultural heritage of these millennia-old trees, La Terra Eterna succeeds in bringing an exceptionally high-quality and ecologically pure limited product to the market. Every olive is hand-picked, cold-pressed under certified organic standards, and only the first press is used. The result is a limited edition unlike anything you'll find on market shelves.
