Sustainable Practices in Detail

Organic Vineyard Management

Our partner vineyards use natural compost, cover crops, and integrated pest management instead of synthetic chemicals. This approach enhances soil health, increases biodiversity, and produces healthier grapes with more complex flavors.

Soil Health Practices:
  • • Cover crops between vine rows
  • • Composting grape pomace
  • • No-till or minimal tillage
  • • Natural mycorrhizal fungi
Pest Management:
  • • Beneficial insects (ladybugs, lacewings)
  • • Pheromone disruption
  • • Organic sulfur sprays only
  • • Bird boxes for natural predators

Water Conservation & Management

Water scarcity is a critical issue in wine regions. Our partners implement advanced irrigation systems, capture rainwater, and use drought-resistant rootstocks to minimize water consumption while maintaining grape quality.
