CVA Canicatt' Soc. Coop. Agricola

Results validated by DNV

The magic of Terre di Nero D’Avola comes to life in the production of CVA Canicattì, bringing to every wineglass the viticultural tradition of a territory that expresses its full potential in Sicily’s best loved native varieties. The cooperative’s love and strong productive bonds with this land has united 300 winegrowers since 1969 to realise an innovative and modern production project deeply rooted in local history and ready to confront the challenges of the most demanding markets. The wines of CVA Canicattì are the product of 700 hectares of vineyards. A viticultural landscape made up of over sixty different production areas, each characterized by unique pedoclimatic conditions and an historical and cultural heritage of absolute prestige: from the Valley of the Temples to the ancient sulphur mines, not to mention the undisputed value of Pirandello’s literature.

AIR Indicator

AIR indicator reflects the total greenhouse gas emission directly or indirectly associated with the company activities (GHG Inventory).
Total emissions are divided into six categories: Category 1 – Direct GHG emissions; Category 2 – Indirect GHG emissions from imported energy; Category 3 – Indirect GHG emissions from transportation; Category 4 – Indirect GHG emissions from products used by organization; Category 5 – Indirect GHG emissions associated with the use of products from the organization (NS=Non Significant as outside the reporting boundaries); Category 6 – Indirect GHG emissions from other sources.
The result is graphically represented by the ring in which the colored segments represent the contribution of each Category.

WATER Indicator

The WATER indicator expresses the potential environmental impacts resulting from the use of fresh water. It takes into account the water directly consumed and polluted by the activities that the company carries out, both in the vineyard and in the cellar, during a calendar year. These impacts are evaluated by two indicators: in particular, water scarcity (Direct Water Scarcity Footprint) depends on the water drawn from water bodies, while the estimate of the qualitative degradation of water (Non-Comprehensive Direct Water Degradation Footprint) derives from processes of re-naturalization of the water bodies.

TERRITORY Indicator

TERRITORY indicator assesses the impact of winery's activities on its surrounding area and local community. This includes: the impact on surrounding biodiversity, taking also into account initiatives carried out by the wine company to protect and preserve the environment; the social and economic impact on local workforce (both in terms of job creation and job quality); the impact on local communities that is producers and consumers. Such indicator analyses whether the winery has respected the socio-economic parameters required by the project.
