Facing climate, economic, and societal pressures, the wine industry is accelerating its transformation. What if CSR were no longer just a framework, but a powerful lever for innovation, differentiation, and resilience?
Three change-makers will share one concrete action that transformed the way they make wine:
  • Fanny Barthelemy, author of 22 Actions for a Sustainable Vineyard and creator of The Wine Fresco, will show how educational, collaborative approaches can spark deep, lasting change.
  • Valérie Vincent (Rhonéa) will tell the bold story of moving away from the embossed bottle—an iconic symbol of the Rhône Valley—in favor of a lighter, eco-designed bottle, while rethinking design to preserve premium positioning. A transition where carbon footprint reduction, packaging innovation, and… resistance to change all collide.
  • Romain Thomas (Vinventions) will explain how the Nomacorc Oceans range, made from plastics collected in coastal areas, embodies product innovation that opens new paths to combine performance, circularity, and positive impact.
An inspiring conversation moderated by Iris Borrut (Managing Director, Vignerons Engagés) to explore how CSR is helping the wine sector reinvent itself—and to leave with key takeaways for building an innovative CSR approach within your organization.
