  • In 2014 we reduced the weight of our glass bottles from 600g to 460g, resulting in a reduction of 12.600kg of glass annually. In addition to that, we reduced the environmental impact of our products by reducing the presence of heavy metals present in our box and label inks, using water-based inks instead of solvent-based inks, and using non-toxic lacquers on 100% of our bottles.
  • In the same year, we eliminated separators in 100% of all our 12-unit cases, saving 606,540.83 grams of cardboard.
  • Organic vineyard. We use phytosanitary products authorised for organic cultivation on our crops, as well as sampling and monitoring of pests and diseases as a preventive form of action.
