New year – new you! If you’re a wine enthusiast, wine connoisseur, or dipping your toes into the wine tasting scene for the first time, buckle up. Here are 4 new years wine resolutions you may want to make for a wine-tastic 2022.
1. Try More Eco-Friendly & Sustainable Wineries
Did you know that wineries can become SIP Certified? It’s a rigorous process that proves that the winery addresses the 3 P’s of sustainability, people, planet, and prosperity. SIP Certification ensures that the winery is sustainable and addresses the habitat, water, energy, soil, recycling, air quality, packaging, pest management, social equity, and business management. Boil it down; it simply means that the winery is good for the planet and great for the employees that work there and for the customers they serve. Here are a couple of wineries on the Central Coat that are SIP Certified that you can visit on your next wine tour or wine tasting excursion.
