While in Bolona it is held by February 25 Gently wine festivalAn international event that is dedicated to good, a, clean and right wine, is a surprise, really, Alcohol. At a time when the climate crisis requires awareness and modern choice, the liquor sector can also distinguish.
Sustainable wine is the one that is looking for balance Economic feasibility, social equality and good environmental state And it applies to the whole production and change chain: Grapes starts – from alcohol, table or passage – and from grape juice, to go to alcohol, spirits and other screws.
When the wine is called durable
But how to understand that if we are buying is a Green bottle? First, we should learn Read the label well. So here we have to see.
Durable alcohol is a wine that comes from a process that makes every effort Keep the resources safe For future generations, in the point of view of conservative and regeneration.
So -called Integrated vitcultureWhich has, in fact, has been in the 1960s, to reduce the maximum impact on the environment, and also to research on new methods that begin with potentially ancient traditions. Only necessary, targeted and the benefit of performing different interference: it is It is cultivated only where it is needed, when needed And depends on the needs of each micro zone, with precise control at each processing stage.
Is a durable wine Non -important arrangement of soil And in the turn of the stream. The wealth of plants in the turning point promotes the presence of microorganisms that help the plants feel better, such as in the case of insects, for example, which helps to fight parasites that the roots of the screws that help to fight parasites. Put risk. Every year, the loss of biological diversity costs 6 % of global GDP.
Also means to talk about the stability of alcohol Environment of the bee -turnThat is, consider the turn of the stream as a complex ecosystem in which various actors interfere with the cycle of nutrients, in the process of putting soil quality, in the containment of parasites and diseases.
If the stream is followed by a renewable energy or energy -saving system, for example, taking advantage of rainwater harvesting and recycling system, the decision of prepared alcohol is more green.
Also Type of basement It matters For example, they Underground They allow at least 70 % saving than those above the ground, as they naturally maintain temperature and moisture for alcohol.
In addition to all these rigorous environmental aspects, “clean” wine cannot be separated from the right and the fair Identify the work of people Which supports all stages of production.
The importance of packaging
No less important PackagingWhich also rapidly compatible with US consumers’ selection.
Someone can start practicing it Empty to makeFor example. Or Reduce the thickness of the glasses Choose bottles or even brands that prefer Paper or cans instead of glasses. As far as hats are concerned, you can give privileges to those who derive vegetables or sustainable polymers, even at least on this front, we can assure: Classic Cork hats are already green.

Finally, we have to look at the certificates. Are present in Italy Two types of certification Of environmental stability: Viva Ed EqualityFor wine companies, which aims to engage in an administrative system that takes into account stability in all stages of liquor production: from the turn of the drain to the basement, from its marketing.
