Sustainability

On an area of more than 500 hectares of land (200 hectares in forest) on which we cultivate more than 500 km of rows with a vast leaf area, Carpineto adopts sustainable precision agriculture with state-of-the-art technology. We produce and use renewable energy from a photovoltaic panel system of more than 150 kW. This is why Carpineto is prodigiously carbon footprint positive, absorbing 26 percent more CO2 released into the atmosphere from any production process traceable to us.

As an attestation of improved supply chain management and performance, we obtained VIVA certification in 2022 by joining the project "The Sustainability of Winegrowing in Italy."

As a Corporate Golden Donor, Carpineto supports FAI – Fondo per l’Ambiente Italiano (the National Trust for Italy), a non-profit foundation established in 1975 with the aim of protecting and enhancing Italy's historical, artistic and landscape heritage.

Carpineto has obtained ISO 14001 certification, which covers the aging and bottling of our wines. 

Another step to demonstrate our concrete commitment to limiting impacts on the environment surrounding our production activities.

• Extreme attention to the preservation of our biodiversity.
• Rationalisation and timeliness in grape harvesting operations to ensure their maximum quality and health.
• Daily monitoring of temperatures and analytical data of musts and wines during fermentation.
• Use of selected natural yeasts to ensure fermentation processes free from the production of harmful substances such as endogenous amines.
