Cheers to Napa Green Champion @opusonewinery! Curi Cheers to Napa Green Champion @opusonewinery! Curious what all those signs represent? Read on..

Napa Green is the leading sustainability certification for Napa Valley wineries and vineyards. 

It requires 120+ detailed measures to achieve both our Winery or Vineyard Certification. These measures are examples of meaningful action being taken in the six pillars of sustainable wine growing, which are: 

	⁃	Water Management 
	⁃	Waste Reduction 
	⁃	Energy Efficiency 
	⁃	Proactive Farming 
	⁃	Social Equity 
	⁃	Climate Action 

Napa Green helps wineries identify impactful actions that they can take for our community. We see that demonstrated here by the signs hanging in front of champion winery, @opusonewinery, which is both vineyard and winery certified, herbicide free and using MCE Deep Green, which provides renewable energy for the facility. 

Reach out to to Team Green to expand on your sustainability practices. No matter what level you are at, think of us as an extension to your team ready to help out in this important work!

🎉 Napa Green GIVEAWAY Day! 🎉 We’re very e 🎉 Napa Green GIVEAWAY Day! 🎉

We’re very excited to partner with one of our Napa Green & Napa RISE Sponsor’s  @vinarmour to giveaway one Vinarmour wine carrier! This is our first ever giveaway and we’re stoked! 

What to do: 

🍷: Follow @napagreen & @vinarmour 
🍷: Like this reel and comment below by tagging a friend who would love a Vinarmour valued at $300!! 
🍷: Share this post in your stories for two extra entries! 

Vinarmour wine carriers last for many years, if not decades eliminating the need to continually buy other carriers that become waste. They are made in the U.S. out of nature’s most durable materials which allows them to offer a lifetime guarantee—less chance it will end up in a landfill. They cut down on carbon emissions by manufacturing and distributing in the U.S. 

Vinarmour keeps your wine chilled in transit far better than neoprene. Style, functionality & sustainability! 

Enter now, good luck everyone! 🍷
