4/12 - Stacy Lille - DeLille Cellars and Jeff Marazoni - Rudi Wiest Selections

Stacy Lille - "DeLille Cellars"


DeLILLE CELLARS is now working with our vineyard partners, and with our own estate, Grand Ciel Vineyard, to apply for certification with L.I.V.E. (Low Input Viticulture & Enology - http://www.liveinc.org). LIVE is a non-profit organization that promotes and certifies sustainable vineyard practices. We are planning that soon, all of our fruit will be grown in a green and sustainable manner so that we can continue to make the best, most natural and authentic wines for many years to come. We are dedicated to do our part so that we have the best possible world in which to make them. We are also applying to be certified by Salmon-Safe (http://www.salmonsafe.org). Important to the Northwest, Salmon-Safe is an independent nonprofit organization devoted to restoring agricultural and urban watersheds so that salmon can spawn and thrive.
