Earth Day: A commitment to the planet

A day dedicated to protecting the planet and our environment

International Mother Earth Day, or simply Earth Day, originated as an environmental initiative in 1969. It all began after a major oil spill in Santa Barbara. The initial proposal was presented by John McConnell to UNESCO. Later, it became a large global movement led by Gaylord Nelson and Denis Hayes. This date was officially ratified by the UN in 2009.

Humanity seeks to protect this common home through historic climate agreements. For the contemporary oenophile, this environmental protection is not an abstract concept. On the contrary, it is a latent reality keenly felt in every glass. Celebrate this date by choosing sustainable labels directly from our online store with home delivery.

International Mother Earth Day: Wine and Terroir

For viticulture enthusiasts, a deep connection with nature is fundamental. The large scale provides the global basis of our planet. However, the specific soil is the element that expresses itself sensorially in wine.

Calcareous, volcanic, or granitic soils completely condition the life of the vine. If the soil represents stable foundations, the climate acts as the ultimate architect of the grape.

The French concept of Terroir represents the exact intersection of three factors. These factors are the soil, the climate, and human intervention. Together they produce unique wine identities. However, climate change and erosion now threaten this delicate symbiosis.

The ethics of soil and sustainable wine

Various authors remind us that true conservation stems from a love for what is local. Wine is, in essence, earth with a soul that can be enjoyed with respect. Caring for the environment is vital for viticulture during International Mother Earth Day.
