Environmentally Friendly Packaging A 10-liter recyclable container carries more than an entire case of wine bottles.  Think about it…every case of bottled wine sold results in waste of 12 empty bottles and a cardboard box!  Thus, the post-consumer cardboard and its plastic bag insert used to package our VINEYARD 518 is the only waste…and both are fully recyclable! Not only do we leave less of a carbon footprint by transporting a lighter product but, once opened, the air tight containers keep the wine fresher and more vibrant for as long as several weeks. And since the cost associated with “bottling” wine is much greater than this packaging process, we are able to focus our resources on providing a higher quality product at a price you can appreciate. A fresh, delicious wine at a great price that’s full of life and easy on the environment…what’s not to love?! THAT was our inspiration for VINEYARD 518! Sustainable Farming Practices Sustainable farming results in healthier soil, balanced grapes and therefore higher quality wines. Sustainable practices sustain and improve the health and vitality of the vines.  Farming techniques preserve and replenish the ecosystem-soil, water, air and wildlife-and help to ensure productivity for future generations.
