Viu Manent has succesfully applied to this certification and our wines are credited as “Sustainable Wine of Chile”.

Since 2012, Viu Manent is participating on the Sustainability Code program to obtain the Sustainability Code of the Wine Chilean Industry.

The Wines of Chile (WoC) Sustainability Code was developed specifically for the Chilean wine industry to set standards and provide a tool for measuring various sustainable practices throughout the entire winemaking value chain and comprises a set of initiatives and projects that aim to guide the industry toward sustainability, understood as the convergence of production processes that are environmentally friendly, socially equitable, and economically viable.

Thus, the Code addresses the wine sector’s needs for sustainable practices in three areas –Vineyard (Green Chapter), Winery (Red Chapter), and Community (Orange Chapter), and provides a Checklist of control points to be evaluated and a Manual with recommendations for each control point.

Although there are different ways to define Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), we can summarize it as a means of doing business in a way that incorporates respect for ethical values, the people who form part of the organization, the neighboring communities, and the environment.

Viña Viu Manent’s implementation of Corporate Social Responsibility contributes to the sustainability of our company over the short, medium, and long terms. This implementation is verified biannually as part of the recertification process under the Chilean Wine Industry’s National Code of Sustainability.

Wine in Moderation es una asociación del rubro vitivinícola sin fines de lucro que tiene por objetivo establecer directrices de consumo responsable de vino: “el vino sólo se puede disfrutar plenamente cuando se consume con moderación”

Vinos de Chile se adhirió a esta iniciativa en abril de 2014 y es el coordinador nacional de WIM.

A este acuerdo se ha sumado Viña Viu Manent, como parte de la cadena de valor del vino y por una cultura del vino sostenible que inspire estilos de vida saludables y beneficiosos para las personas.

¿Qué es la Moderación?
El consumo moderado y regular de vino está asociado con varios beneficios para la salud. No obstante, el riesgo se incrementa con cada copa que supera el límite de la moderación. Beber más de lo que se recomienda no aportará más ventajas, sino que redundará en más daños.

  • Hasta 2 unidades de alcohol al día para mujeres.
  • Hasta 3 unidades de alcohol al día para hombre.
  • No más de 4 unidades de alcohol de una sola vez.

¿QUIÉNES Y CUÁNDO EVITAR BEBER?

  • Los niños y los jóvenes menores de 18 años.
  • Las mujeres que están embarazadas, o que estén pensando en concebir.
  • Ex alcohólicos o personas con un historial familiar de dependencia del alcohol.
  • Al conducir
