It was an absolute pleasure to witness the process of cork harvest in real life. Thank you to our member M.A.SILVA for having given us this great opportunity to understand the importance of cork forests, and the in-depth journey from bark to cork stopper. We invite to watch this video and listen to Nuno Silva's narrative, that will most certainly be insightful to you too. #wineindustry #wineforgood #naturebasedsolutions #carbonsink

Spreading our members' endeavors to reduce their impact: Here's an example of how Raimat is using technology to reduce its environmental footprint. Great to see technology in the service of #wineforgood

We are so proud to share that we have been one of the organizations to be awarded with this year's NEGRONI WEEK INNOVATION AWARD. This winning initiative is a result of our collaboration with our member, Sustainable Wine Solutions (Borough Wines). Together, thanks to this fund, we will soon be developing a #ZeroWaste Bar Guide that will be distributed and used as a training tool in UK outlets and beyond. This achievement marks a significant milestone as we expand our impact across the wine value chain, bringing us closer to the consumer. #slowfood #negroniweek Imbibe
