At Casas del Toqui Winery, we are committed to the sustainable development of our processes and we have set out to constantly strengthen our bond with the ecosystem. To achieve this, we have developed practices that help us move towards sustainable agriculture hand in hand with the well-being of our natural environment, our employees and community.
We are aware of the importance of conserving water and the impact water usage has on our planet so we have modified the way we irrigate our vineyards by implementing drip irrigation.
It is consequent with our commitment with the planet to reuse the water that is collected from our productive processes. In order to achieve our goal, we have installed outstanding water treatment facilities in our winery.
We are now generating some of our own power, via installing solar panels in our facilities. We are constantly looking at sustainable forms of energy and continuously investing in the improvement of our solar power sources.
It is important to don’t waste what can be used. We recycle a large part of the residues that our processes generate, obtaining different kinds of products such as natural fertilizers. We also send other types of waste to larger recycling companies.
In our vineyard we promote an ecosystem-friendly soil management. Through sheep grazing, weeds are controlled and the use of chemicals and machinery is reduced, thus developing a mutualism where the environment benefits.

100% of our liquid industrial waste is treated in our plant and then reincorporated into our vineyards through irrigation. Additionally, we have modified the way we irrigate our vineyards by implementing drip irrigation.
We have a photovoltaic plant since 2020, installed on the roof of our warehouse and in other areas of the property. Thanks to it, today we generate and use clean energy in almost all of the process.
Our air conditioning systems are independent, this helps to use cold or heat only where it is needed.
During the cleaning process of our facilities we have implemented multiple relevant activities such as dry cleaning, collecting solid waste and, finally, washing with water.
We have minimized washing times in tanks and equipment, using recirculation systems, this helps to save water and cleaning products for these tasks.
We have decided to implement the concept of the 3Rs, which aims to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle waste. By virtue of this, we reuse a large part of the waste generated by our processes, obtaining various types of products, such as fertilizers. We also reuse the barrels, giving them a new use in murals, flower pots, tables and benches.
The waste that results from our production processes that is not possible to be reused, is properly stored and delivered to authorized recycling companies.
We share our waste management procedures with our employees and collaborators, integrating them in these processes to build an awareness on how everyone can contribute to a sustainable environment.
We carried out a training detection survey of our employees. With the results obtained, the annual training plan is prepared, addressing the most important gaps detected by the Head of the area and based on the results of the survey.
We have received students from schools and universities in pedagogical visits in our warehouse, all of this in order to contribute to the academic formation of the students.
