Commitment to
Sustainability
Our philosophy of gentle handling extends beyond winemaking to the stewardship of natural resources.


Land
Conservation
We leave 60% of our estate vineyard properties unplanted, allowing natural habitats to thrive and integrating our vines into the land’s ecosystem.

Water
Conservation
We save water through rainwater capture, winery water recycling for vineyard irrigation, and precision drip irrigation guided by soil moisture monitoring.

Energy
Efficiency
We power 70% of our winery's annual electricity needs with a solar array of 3,000 panels. Our central computer monitors and optimizes energy usage.

REGENERATIVE
FARMING
We improve soil health through reduced tillage, composting, cover crops, livestock integration, and natural pest control, all while sequestering carbon and eliminating chemical fertilizers.


THIRD-PARTY CERTIFIED
La Crema’s sustainability efforts are certified through rigorous third-party audits, including Sustainability In Practice (SIP) and Certified California Sustainable Winegrowing (CCSW).

THE NITTY-GRITTY DETAILS
Many companies are taking crucial steps toward climate neutrality, aiming to minimize their environmental impact. But we’re going one step further and setting our sights on actively restoring and improving the environment.
