Our commitment to Sustainable Development
Since 2017, the Group has been engaged in a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative
Our sustainable development strategy and vision are constantly evolving, attentive to consumer's demands and striving to be ever more ambitious. The work carried out in the regions we operate in and the efforts dedicated to this approach over several years now, backed up by a very active Steering Committee at Group level, have meant that sustainable development is now at the heart of all our activities.
Throughout the long delicate journey required to make a great wine, our teams work together combining their know-how and technical mastery, from working the land and the grapevines to winemaking and maturing and taking in packaging and logistics.
Our 5 challenges for 2020-2024
The Health & Safety of our consumers : Food safety is our top priority. All our sites are IFS and BRC certified. Our quality organization enables our teams to work each and every day to produce wines up to our customers’ expectations, with products and services that comply with international standards and regulations.
Environmental Protection : In order to safeguard the future of forthcoming generations, we are now acting on all levels: from the vineyard to the distribution of our products and taking in bottling. Our goals: prevent pollution, achieve a high energy performance level and reduce our impact on the environment by optimising the use of natural resources.
Labour Relations & Working Conditions : Our employees are the life blood of the Company. We are continually striving to improve their quality of life at work and preserve their health and safety. We want each employee to find fulfilment in working in our company while being committed and accountable.
Responsible purchasing policy : We encourage our suppliers to make the fundamental CSR themes a key part of their strategy and in particular those concerning Ethics, Human rights and the Environment.
Rooted in the regions : Through our businesses and products, we are deeply involved in the wine-growing regions. We have built up long-term relationships of trust with our partners, in particular with winegrowers, our goal being to promote the unique character and diversity of each region.
