Can Wine really be luxury and sustainable?

I've just relocated to California and am interested by the plethora of wineries touting the "sustainability" flag. Most are simply partially green and often have contradictory practices.

Thanks for the message. It was something I had thought about a while ago actually. I am waiting to design real structured bras for SS09 - it would be a great PR campaign then. If there is anything you would like from our collection I am happy to give a discount to authentic luxury members - 20% off non sale items. CODE: AUTHLUXECO_B20
Just let me know. Jenny

Yes, Kailash was the founder of RugMark and is still very involved.

I can't wait to see how your Marine Positive program progresses.

We are working to increase awareness among consumers and within the trade but still have a long way to go...

All the best to you and much success in 2008!
