Eco-Friendly Winery? 08/26/2008 Karma: 0  
I was recently searching for good organic, sustainable wine clubs as a wedding gift for my very eco-friendly sister. I came across a some cool ones: Parducci (1st carbon neutral winery), and Sokol Blosser (1st LEEDS certified winery).

I was wondering if any of you had any suggestions for other eco-friendly wineries. There seems to be alot!
