OK, so his champagne will sell regardless, because it's Leo, however this 'soft' sustainability is a good example of how wine makers can bring further green credentials to their offer. Many vineyards already adopt sustainable practices in their processes such as keeping hedgerows uncut to encourage biodiversity, growing wildflowers between vines, and using sheep to manage the grass. However these are almost hygiene factors in viticulture. A glance along the shelves of most supermarkets and you will notice that the majority of champagne is sold in heavy dark green bottles - with the liquid hidden from view. Gone are the days, with the developments in glass technology, that this is required to maintain product quality and stop light degradation, so why not create a point of difference linked to an environmental benefit? By utilising glass that usually would not be used for champagne, it is a strengthening of the brands environmental credentials, ahead of other producers, and it will be interesting to see if this has an impact on consumer sales. Maybe it is only a product owned by a famous movie star that can do this - but a step in the right direction for the industry. https://lnkd.in/em5v4BzS

Think local. Act global. Not vice versa… Whilst the global wine industry is under threat and for various reasons that all have the same impact, the what, who, when, how and WHY must have a human reference. However, to save the South African Wine Industry (and others globally), the process of Environmental Awareness (E) + Social Equity (S) = Financial Viability (G) must be digitalised for a whole of industry traceability solution. Digitalise sustainability. It’s the only way forward…

This week WineWorks hosted a webinar with Edwin Massey of NZ WineGrowers on Alternative Wine Packaging. Fascinating to have industry experts Matt Dicey and Chris Archer present their experience of modern Bag-in-Box and wine-in-cans, as well as presentations by Packamama, Frugalpac and refillable bottle solutions - all answering our need to deliver more sustainable solutions to our customers, that go even beyond the excellent progress the industry has made on lightweighting glass. If you're a member of NZ Winegrowers, you'll find a recording of the webinar here: https://lnkd.in/giwt8FpC, otherwise there's an FAQ sheet here: https://lnkd.in/gsg9e9xM that we prepared that will help your winery make decisions on alternative markets that go a step further. Note the environmental impact claims below include all forms of sustainable winegrowing that are endorsed by SWNZ, not just carbon footprint. Energy consumption, water consumption, waste buildup and CO2 emissions are all important. These claims are of course the view of the presenter alone.

I believe the wine industry is ready, thought leaders are moving in the direction of embracing sustainability to meet the demand of consumer values. Much has been made about the wine industry’s decline of late but this is a resilient industry and I think the actions wineries take today can not just save the industry but be an inspiring model for the rest of the agriculture.

Achieving B Corp status in sustainability is an amazing accomplishment. Only 100 wineries around the world have this status, and among them is one of my favorites - Ridgeview Wine Estate from the UK. Led by Tamara Roberts Ridgeview is one of 2 wineries, as per Jancic Robinson's 2022 article, (today might be a few more not sure) certified B Corp status. According to JancisRobinson.com "The non-profit organisation B Lab was founded in 2006 with the noble aim of ‘transforming the global economy to benefit all people, communities, and the planet’ by encouraging businesses to take into account all stakeholders, not just shareholders, and to up their sustainability game. They monitor and certify companies’ social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency. B Lab’s total of more than 200 questions to be answered by companies assess the social and environmental impact of each brand including matters of governance, employees, communities and the environment. Each company’s performance is measured against B Lab standards and has to be publicly available on its B Corp profile on the B Lab website. As if that were not difficult enough, the company has to engage in a process of continuous, and continuously monitored, improvement. It sounds even more complicated than getting organic or biodynamic certification." Interesting note: Just because a winery is certified Organic, or Biodynamic, does NOT mean that it is certified Sustainable. Sustainability means not only giving back to the earth but also giving back to the community. #sustainablepractices #certifiedBCorp #BCorp #sustainability #sustainablewinery #UKwine #UKwineindustry #ridgeviewwineestate https://lnkd.in/e86NeV6X
Why Are Wineries Around the World Seeking This Certification?
