The Forest
For more than 20 years, Guido Berlucchi has been an acknowledged benchmark for its projects embodying innovation and sustainability. The family character of the winery, guided by the second generation and with the third now starting to take its place, has ensured a far-sighted approach and one respectful of natural resources. The winery has always been a sector leader, in fact, in all projects aimed at sustainable management of the local environment. Berlucchi’s initiatives, for example, include partnership with Ita.Ca in monitoring CO2 emissions, and it has installed a solar panel array that supplies 40% of the winery’s energy needs, while water use is gradually being diminished by half. They have eliminated all allergens from the wines and have brought down the level of sulphites to less than half the legally-allowed amount. The company's commitment does not stop: in 2019 we thought to make a concrete contribution to the reforestation of the planet by purchasing, with your help, the first 300 trees with Treedom. The project has been very much appreciated by both you and us and has seen its natural renewal also in 2020 with some new features: an eco-friendly packaging in certified sustainable paper with dedicated graphics and the increase of trees this year from 300 to 1300!Berlucchi '61 for Treedom: Let's celebrate together a more sustainable world!"
Impact
The trees we plant have big ambitions: to bring benefits not only to the environment, but also to the people who live in it. That's why we work with NGOs and local communities to select the right tree for the right place and the right purpose. That’s why we think about the medium and long term, because we’re not content with simply planting trees: we want to see them grow.
