Santa Julia

Preserving our environment has always been one of our family’s dominant values.
We have always thought of winemaking as an activity concurrent with the protection of the environment and, as time goes by, we work hard to become better and better at this. In 1999 we were the first winery to certify our organic vineyards. Today we have almost 400 organic hectares, a water recovery system from the vineyards, a boiler system to generate organic fuels, waste separation for recycling among many other tasks that we carry out every day to be a sustainable brand.
