Rooted in Change: The Stories Behind Sustainable Wine

By Andy Neather and Jane Masters MW

The first book to look at how the complex wine industry is addressing climate change with lessons for other industries and everyone interested in a better future for the planet.

This is a compelling new book focused on the intersection of wine and sustainability. It will explore the most urgent issues facing the wine industry today, from climate change and resource management to evolving consumer expectations, offering a rich blend of tradition and innovation to inspire a sustainable future for winemaking.

Wine regions around the world, from the vineyards of Bordeaux to the valleys of California, are grappling with the undeniable effects of climate change. Record-breaking temperatures, extreme weather patterns, and resource scarcity are pressing the industry to rethink how it operates. As wineries increasingly embrace sustainable farming methods--from water conservation strategies to regenerative viticulture practices--the book will take readers through a comprehensive exploration of these pioneering approaches. The book will feature a mix of expert commentary, in-depth case studies, and engaging storytelling that illustrates how sustainability is being embraced across the global wine community--from regenerative farming practices at Tablas Creek in California to innovative water management strategies in Australia's Barossa Valley.

Appealing to a wide range of readers, from those in the sustainability industry to other sectors, both agricultural and broader product manufacturing sectors.
