While the label catches your eye, its what’s inside the every bottle of Wines That Rock that’s important.
In Robert Parker's article on Wine Trends: "The Creation of Healthier Vineyards" he says - "no one should argue that organic or biodynamic vineyards are intrinsically superior to others, it is a healthy movement, and there is no question that the results are better and produce better fruit, and ultimately, better wines."
When we started Wines That Rock almost 2 years ago we searched the country for the right partners to custom craft our unique varietals. Finding a winemaker that's willing to craft wine based on rock 'n roll music is no easy task, but luckily we found Mark Beaman and the Mendocino Wine Co.
Besides their ability to craft wines inspired by music, the Mendocino Wine Co. has proven over the years that they are true environmental leaders, becoming the first carbon neutral winery in the US in 2007. All of Wines That Rock varietals are grown in Mendocino County utilizing sustainable farming and business practices.
But what does that really mean? Well check this out! In this (part 1) Green Winegrowing Handbook Presentation, our partner Tim Thornhill talks about what “sustainably grown” means. He provides an in-depth overview of the green practices used in the creation of Wines That Rock providing a better understanding of why these practices contribute not only to the quality of wine but the health of our environment.
As you watch it, you will learn more about carbon neutrality, 100% green power, sustainable farming practices, water reduction, reuse and recycling and our earth friendly packaging. Rock on!
