How Our New Lightweight Bottle Reduces Carbon Emissions

At Pine Ridge Vineyards, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a commitment. With our new lightweight wine bottle, we’re taking an innovative step toward reducing our ecological footprint while continuing to craft exceptional wines.

Our Chenin Blanc + Viognier now comes in a 405g bottle, which is 20% lighter than traditional wine bottles. This change helps significantly reduce carbon emissions, making it easier on the planet without compromising on quality.

Why a Lighter Bottle Matters

Switching to a lightweight bottle is a small but powerful step toward achieving our long-term sustainability goal:

Lower Carbon Footprint – Less glass means fewer emissions during production and transportation.
Easier Handling – Lighter bottles make it simpler to pour, store, and transport.
Reduced Shipping Impact – Less weight = fewer emissions from distribution.
Supports Our Net Zero Goal – We’re committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
