THE BACOVINO® STORY
RANDY BROOKS Founder/Winemaker
I believe that sharing wine with friends provides a common connection between people and cultures. Good wine can be the thread that ties it all together.
As our palate develops, we end up liking wines that we may not have understood before. It's a journey, in love and passion, where you learn to appreciate the uniqueness of wines, to understand what goes into each bottle.
VINEYARDS
The strength of a good wine is rooted in the uniqueness of its origins. And many believe, like we do, that there are no better grapes than those from Washington wine country.
We look at how each of the vineyard locations will present itself in our wine, considering things like slope, sun and airflow exposure, and – of course – soil. Vines grown in windblown soil with rich, glacial sediment and volcanic ash create grapes with robust and intense flavor, which we love.
OUR PROMISE TO SUSTAINABILITY
We believe that sustainability is an important part of our social responsibility. That’s why we support environmentally friendly initiatives like soil conservation, composting, wastewater management and responsible post-consumer product disposal.
We strive to use grapes cultivated in an ecologically balanced manner, and so favor natural methods for herbicide and pest control. Although we may not always source organic fruit, we are committed to supporting sustainable farming methods.
Our cellar team has also adopted a culture of sustainability. We’re dedicated to using less water, and we’ve adopted ecologically sensitive cleaning practices.
Our goal is to protect this planet so that healthy vineyards can produce world class grapes year after year. Sustainability isn’t just a goal. It’s a promise.
