What sustainability means to us

Sustainability is a value to believe in and for which it’s worth to work seriously, but above all a way of making a cooperative.
Sustainable products only come from a sustainable Company, attentive to its workers, to the impact on the environment and to the relations with the territory, since today’s consumers make their own purchasing and consumption choices in an increasingly conscious way.

The principles of the sustainability concept are the protection and safeguard of the territory, the careful control of resources and respect for fundamental human rights . This finds expression in every step of our supply chain, from the correct management of crops to distribution, through harvesting, vinification and bottling. Tradition and innovation firmly intertwines to address the next generations and guarantee them a future that is undoubtedly better and indisputably sustainable.

Our commitment to a better future

The main goals we aim to reach every single day are to face the environmental challenges and carry out the most advanced solutions in order to reduce to lower terms the impact of the cooperative on the territory. It is necessary to ensure a safe working environment for the members, workers and suppliers, keeping a transparent and sound relationship of coexistence between the winery and the local community. We commit ourselves to respect all these principles with determination and perseverance.
Every year the achieved goals are shared in a transparent way, through the drafting of a specific Sustainability Report which can be consulted by all stakeholders.
