Aware of the importance of generating positive impacts in the territory in which it operates and of maintaining an open and continuous dialogue with stakeholders, the Trentino Wine Protection Consortium has undertaken the process that has led to the publication of its second Sustainability Report, a report on the Trentino wine industry supply chain that highlights the activities and initiatives undertaken
for sustainability relating to its own actions and those of its member wineries and winegrowers.
The SQNPI certifies agricultural and agro-industrial products obtained in accordance with integrated production standards.
Integrated production is defined as “the agri-food production system that uses all means of production and protection of agricultural products from adversity, aimed at minimizing the use of synthetic chemicals and rationalizing fertilization, in compliance with ecological, economic, and toxicological principles.”
In this way, the system guarantees a significantly higher quality of the final product than is currently available.
The Trentino Wine Consortium is the entity that has joined the SQNPI on behalf of its winegrowing members and verifies compliance with integrated production requirements by all members through field inspections and related analyses.
Crowning its commitment to the territory, the Trentino Wine Consortium has led to the certification of:
Companies can voluntarily join the SQNPI either individually or as part of an association.
CSQA Certificazioni of Thiene (VI) has been chosen by the Trentino Wine Consortium as the certification body (ODC) to certify its winegrowers.
The Trentino Wine Consortium is responsible for preparing and managing the integrated production regulations for the wine sector on behalf of the Autonomous Province of Trento.
The self-monitoring plan, defined and managed by the Consortium, provides for documentary checks on 100% of participating winegrowers and the performance of multi-residue analyses on grapes from a sample of farms. The ODC then carries out the third-party checks provided for in the control plan.
The SQNPI provides for the possibility of limiting checks to the cultivation phase only. The certification obtained by winegrowers associated with the Trentino Wine Consortium concerns wine grapes.
After certification of the wine grapes, wineries will be able to continue the certification process for the wine product, obtaining the right to use the distinctive trademark.
