Domaine William Fèvre receives “High Environmental Value” certification

Domaine William Fèvre has just obtained “High Environmental Value” (HVE) status, the highest level of environmental certification.
This certification uses performance indicators to identify and promote domaines which practice environmentally-friendly growing. The domaine gave priority to Option A, based on the assessment of a number of themed performance indicators such as “biodiversity”, “plant health strategy”, and”fertilizer management” .

The achievement of this certification recompenses a practice which has been in place since the Domaine was acquired in 1998. Since 2006 two-thirds of the domaine have been grown organically, with biodynamic methods in use since 2010. According to Didier Séguier, director and cellar master, this voluntary practice is a necessity: “Sensitive to environmental issues, we have been working this way for almost 10 years now, for the good of the vineyards, consumers and our employees who work in the vineyards. “
