Durbanville Hills partners with Wine to Water to launch new Canadian effort in providing clean drinking water to those that need it most.

Durbanville Hills, the South African winery globally renowned for producing top quality wines while employing sustainable systems and methods that cause minimum disruption to the environment, announced today that it has partnered with the Raleigh, North Carolina, based non-profit organization Wine to Water. Durbanville Hills, which was one of the first wineries to recover, treat and reuse ‘waste’ water at its winery, will launch a Canadian initiative that will see a portion of sales donated directly to Wine to Water, the non-profit aid organization focused on providing clean water to people all over the world.

“We believe that Wine to Water is an important and worthy organization that tirelessly works to fight the epidemic of poorly sanitized water,” said Durbanville Hills Winemaker Martin Moore. “Recognizing the value in taking pressure of this precious resource, Durbanville Hills has strived to sustainably manage the production of our wines with special attention given to utilizing water that, without recovery and treatment back to irrigation quality, would otherwise be lost. We now look to raise awareness on a broader scale of water sustainability and the global community’s responsibility to have water, in its cleanest form, available for all.”
