Sustainability

The Santa Cruz Mountains is a beautiful area, which overlooks the ecologically diverse Monterey Bay Sanctuary. We believe we have a duty to do our part in maintaining and improving this natural beauty while being good business citizens of our community.

Sustainability at BARGETTO WINERY

As winemakers we not only strive to produce outstanding wines but also to do it in a way that minimizes our impact on the environment.

There are three aspects to winegrowing sustainability as it applies to our winemaking operations:

• The first is Environmentally Sound, in which we strive to produce wines in a green manner. Our winery practice like insulation of cooling pipes for energy conservation is an example (Need examples from John Bargetto)

• The second is Economically Feasible, in which we maintain practices that will allow our winery to continue our long family tradition. Producing consistently quality wines that retain devoted customers and efficient business practices are two examples

• The third component is Socially Equitable, in which we strive to provide a healthy and dignified work environment for our employees. Our giving back to the community, especially our LA VITA Fund (link to “Our Beneficiaries on LA VITA page) is another example of this aspect to sustainable winegrowing.

Sustainable Winegrowing at Regan Estate Vineyards 

At Regan Estate Vineyards, we subscribe to the concept and practice of sustainability in which farmers, wanting to be good stewards of the land, seek to work in harmony with nature. As it applies to the world of wine, it is called Sustainable Winegrowing.

There are three basic aspects of Sustainable Winegrowing

• The first is Environmental Sustainability where we seek to minimize our impact on nature so as to help sustain a healthy environment for future generations. (Need examples from John Bargetto)

• Secondly, there is Economic Sustainability. Here we operate a fiscally responsible business, one that can continue to operate viably for generations to come. (Need examples from John Bargetto)

• The third aspect is Socially Equitable, in which we strive to treat our employees and community with respect. (Need examples from John Bargetto)
