“Being Certified Sustainable in the SIP program has really helped us tell the story of the Hope Family Vineyard, especially with distributors and customers who want to learn more about our vineyard practices.”
Austin Hope, Hope Family Wines
“We began participating in SIP from day 1, frankly because it is the right thing to do. This year we were able to sell our grapes 80% above the open market because of SIP. It’s like getting paid to do the right thing.”
Lino Bozzano, Laetitia Vineyard & Winery
“It is obvious to us in the industry that sustainable wines are in high demand and will continue to trend in that direction. There are so many wines to choose from in stores and online, sustainability certification gives the customer a great reason to try something new and to develop loyalty to a winery or vineyard they really like.”
Josh Brain, Baker and Brain
“SIP really helped sell our grapes. [SIP Certification] makes you stand out.”
Sue Luft, Luft Vineyard
“When Bristol Farms selected their winery to highlight for April’s Earth Month, they knew that they wanted a winery that paid attention to the land where they produced their wines. Halter Ranch’s SIP™ Certification differentiated us as just the kind of winery that Bristol Farms was looking to feature. As a result of our sustainable practices, Halter Ranch wines were specially displayed in all 12 of the Southern California Bristol Farms stores, highlighting our commitment to the environment, our people, and the world we live in.”
