Give Wine a Future
Our portfolio exclusively features wineries committed to sustainability. We carefully select partners who prioritise environmental responsibility and sustainable practices, ensuring our wines reflect our commitment to quality and eco-conscious winemaking.
Leading by example on Climate Change
The Give Wine a Future movement was born of the realisation that there is an urgent need for Ireland’s wine industry to take action and lead by example on climate change. There have been increasingly devastating climate-related events in Europe over recent years, including wildfires, extensive flooding, heatwaves and drought. We are facing a tipping point, and without a commitment to climate action from across industry and society at large, this crisis will become a catastrophe.
Climate action means a commitment to a model of sustainable business, and for wine it goes beyond organic and biodynamic farming. In fact, the biggest carbon footprint for wine producers is everything outside of the vineyard – water management, energy use, packaging and transport.
Big businesses have the power to drive change. Our aim is to educate and inform the wine trade, to help them to make informed choices and educate the consumer in turn. By working together, as individuals and as corporate entities, we can bring about real and lasting change and mitigate against the worst effects of climate change.
Our portfolio exclusively features sustainable wines from producers dedicated to environmental excellence across their operations. They set the standard for climate action in the industry, and we take pride in offering their environmentally responsible wines to you.
