Andrea da Ponte Distillers & Winemakers Andrea Da Ponte Prosecco & Fine Grappa, deep-rooted respect for nature and for the land, passed down through generations of Da Pontes, have become an integral part of the family culture and of the principles underpinning their feelings and choices. The Distillery was the first to pioneer environmental sustainability in its production processes, starting from the installation, in 1983, of biomass boilers; followed by the realization of ultra-modern systems for thermal energy recovery, for the production of bio-gas, for the purification of effluents and smoke; and, lastly, with the opening at the end of 2009 of the 110 KWp photovoltaic plant, which enables an annual reduction in the emission of CO2 (greenhouse gases) of 70 tonnes. Andrea Da Ponte believe it is their responsibility to stay on the cutting edge of environmental sustainability through continuous research – to protect our valuable environment, and to reward the loyalty of Andrea da Ponte clients – by ensuring a production of the highest quality, accomplished through the use of renewable energy sources – with near-zero emissions. The Distillery protects ecological balance through the control of air, water and energy. Andrea Da Ponte Grappa is Nature-friendly! Andrea da Ponte Prosecco a particular delight.
