Green Wine Summit

The region of Northern California is synonymous with a particular product that is harvested, much to the delight of people the world round. Wine finds a home in this region, in places such as Monterey, Sonoma and Napa. The grapes that are harvested produce wines that are well known, and now the city of Santa Rosa in Sonoma County is playing host to the second annual Green Wine Summit on December 1st and 2nd.

This is the foremost event on the green wine industry, and by green wine we aren’t talking about an off-colored sauvignon-blanc. This summit offers its guests a wide variety of different green-related presentations. Held at the Hyatt Vineyard Creek hotel, registration is currently open for both days of the summit.

On the 1st of December, information about the rules and regulations of a green economy are discussed, in tandem with sustainable business practices. This, as well as how to “green” an organization, information on how to get it up to codes and standards to gain certification through different assessment programs. To round out the first day; comes information about resources and services that will help expand healthy business practices.

The 2nd of December is the main focus of the event, with activities and sessions too numerous to name lasting from the morning hours until the evening. Gil Friend, the President and CEO of Natural Logic, Inc., will deliver the keynote address during the luncheon. In addition, there will be additional speakers who represent various aspects of the wine industry. From winery owners, marketing people, to executive heads of business development firms, many points of view regarding the green wine industry will be discussed in length.
