Sustainable Commitment
We care about the future of next generations.
Our Impact
As Enrico Serafino winery, we must take in consideration that nature is our artisan crafting place that affects directly our wines.
In the meanwhile, we care about people, doesn’t matter if they are our children, associates or consumers. This is why we are committed to have a positive impact on the community.
Biodiversity
A part of this commitment is to address the use of chemicals such as fertilizers and plant protection products by maximizing the mechanical works.
In term to achieve these goals we are using state of the art technology like meteo station network that informs of the specific vineyards climate conditions and avoids the unnecessary use of chemicals. Moreover, we use the grassing system to keep the soil safe from erosion.
Culture of Sustainability
We are also concerned in acting responsibly in our cellars. From a production standpoint, we ensure that:
- the electric energy we use is 100% from renewable resources. (certified by Guarentees of Origin)
From a packaging standpoint, Enrico Serafino ensures that:
- bottles are produced with 65% of recycled glass;
- labels are made with 100% natural paper certified FSC (The Forest Stewardship Council sets standards for responsible forest management. A voluntary program, FSC uses the power of the marketplace to protect forests for future generations);
- closures are in cork.
VIVA Certification
Following in the process of building a culture of sustainability, in 2019, Enrico Serafino signed the VIVA Guidelines and in 2021, received the VIVA Certification. It is an Italian Ministry for the Environment, Land and Sea certification designed to assess sustainability performances and to objectively communicate them to the stakeholders.
VIVA protocol harmonizes the environmental, social and economic indicators widely used at national and international level, covering a full set of elements from the Carbon Footprint to the Water Consumption, from the Vineyards Activities to the Social Responsibility.
