Château de la Verrière, a visit to a vineyard committed to the environment in Gironde

Alain and Dolorès are wine producers who value the land and nature to develop their ranges. Since 2011, they have been committed to a true environmental approach and do everything possible to protect the soil and the grapes. Limiting yields, reasoned management and reducing pollutants have naturally led to organic farming, a label that will be official next year. Certified ISO 14001, HVE 3 (High Environmental Value) and CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility), they are up to date on all points, from human to biodiversity. For a few years now, they have even been harvesting forest honey with the installation of beehives in 2017, a product that you can find alongside wines and goodies in their producer shop.
