Quality standards
International Food Standard
This certification plays an essential role in meeting retailers' requirements in terms of food quality and safety.
IFS certification guarantees a series of rigorous criteria:
Traceability
Ensures complete traceability of our wines, from vine to bottle.
Harmonised process
Requires the implementation of harmonised and adapted processes that guarantee food safety throughout our production chain.
Risk prevention
Prevent the risks of food fraud and ensure the safety of food crops.
HVE certification
The aim of High Environmental Value is to identify and promote farming practices that are more respectful of the environment.
Four key areas of environmental certification
Organic Farming Certification
As part of this drive to respect the environment, some of our co-operators have committed to this approach. These commitments have resulted in a range of wines made from grapes certified as "Organic Agriculture".
Our eco-responsible commitments
Because we are aware of the importance of preserving our terroir and our environment, the whole team is involved on a daily basis.
BOTTLES
In order to limit our CO2 emissions, we have opted for lighter bottles: 395g.
RECYCLING
Cardboard and plastic are entrusted to a company specialising in the cardboard and plastics industries for recycling and reuse.
