Soc. Agr. Assuli winery s.r.l.

Results validated by DNV

Assuli fa parte di un gruppo fondato nel 1948 dal capostipite Cav. Lav. Giacomo Caruso, imprenditore siciliano di successo e punto di riferimento per lo sviluppo dell’economia del territorio. Nonostante le aziende di famiglia si siano sviluppate prima in tutta Italia, e successivamente in tutto il mondo, nei settori edilizio e lapideo, la famiglia Caruso ha mantenuto salde le proprie radici, iniziando ad ampliare negli anni 2000 le proprie campagne, già di proprietà dal secolo scorso. Grazie al mantenimento scrupoloso dei canoni tradizionali di lavorazione di uve autoctone, Assuli ha ottenuto una produzione di vini biologici di eccellenza celebrati da numerosi riconoscimenti in tutto il mondo. La recente costruzione del Baglio Assuli, una moderna cantina che unisce tradizione e innovazione in un luogo magico dove l’orizzonte unisce campagna, cielo e mare, ha permesso ai Caruso di continuare la storia di famiglia. Unendo le forze commerciali di un grande gruppo internazionale con il prestigio e l’unicità di un prodotto locale di eccellenza, oggi i nipoti Roberto, Nicoletta e Michele conducono l’azienda verso nuovi traguardi, trasferendo in bottiglia un antico sapere che si traduce in un vino di assoluta genuinità e dall’inconfondibile carattere.

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.

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.

VINEYARD indicator measures the agricultural practices impact: the use of agrochemicals and their effects on ground water, air and soil quality; the soil management which includes the use of fertilizers; the management of organic materials; phenomena such as compaction and erosion and other activities that can affect biodiversity. The impact of such parameters are expressed on a scale from A to E (A = minimal environmental impact; E = strong environmental impact).

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.
