Green Practices

Environmentally-friendly practices are nothing new at Château d’Aqueria. In addition to environmentally-friendly wine-growing, Château d’Aqueria has long implemented a sustainable development approach to preserve and protect local flora and fauna, and it strictly limits inputs. It is a state of mind and their identity.

For over 20 years, Château d’Aqueria has applied deeply-rooted undertakings. A weather station located in the heart of the vineyard is used to develop study models which reduce human intervention to the strict minimum. Organic fertilization uses leaves, vine shoots and other noble organic matter, crushed at the foot of each vine-plant, which provide the soil with natural balance and stability. Every application in the vineyard takes environmental impact into consideration.

In 2014, their efforts were crowned with the awarding of the High Environmental Value Certification. This certification attests to compliance throughout the estate with environmental performance thresholds involving biodiversity, pesticide products, fertilization management and water resources, all of which are measured by indicator totals. Only farms that have reached the 3rd and maximum level of certification can display this certification.
