What Emiliana actually does

Emiliana is a Certified B Corp winery in Chile, farming vineyards across the Colchagua and Limarí valleys under organic and biodynamic methods — no synthetic pesticides, animal-integrated pest and soil management, and regenerative practices across roughly 1,000 hectares converted to organic agriculture since 1998. The company describes itself as the largest organic winery in the world.

“The B Corp Certification is a milestone that validates our comprehensive approach.”

Cristián Rodríguez, General Manager, Emiliana

Why this belongs on a sustainability directory

Conventional viticulture relies heavily on synthetic pesticides and fertilizers; Emiliana has spent over 25 years converting its vineyards away from that model toward biodynamic, animal-integrated farming instead, at a scale — 1,000 hectares — few wineries attempt. That directly serves SDG 15 (Life on Land) by protecting soil biodiversity, and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) by proving organic methods can scale to award-winning commercial wine production.
