CIBO Celebrates World Chardonnay Day with Healthy Soils and Sustainable Terroir
At CIBO, we believe all agriculture products should be paying attention to how to remain climate-resilient in the face of climate change. Wines and Chardonnay are an essential part of everyday life across the globe.
This year, we hope to bring the importance of enjoying the wine and focusing on how to make it sustainable for generations to come.
Climate change adaptation is a key to the future of agriculture, a particularly vulnerable economic sector that depends heavily on weather and climatic conditions. Climate change adaptation can broadly be defined as “the set of actions and processes that societies must take to limit the negative impacts of the changes and maximize their beneficial effect” (Carter, 1996).
If you’re looking for ways to incorporate regenerative agriculture into your growing operations, learn more on our guided learning pathway Regenerative Ag Practices 101.

In memoriam to Steven Spurrier, modern day explorer, warrior in wine industry, terroir interpreter, and dedicated to making Chardonnay better!
Steven Spurrier was a British wine expert and merchant who was described as a champion of French wine. Spurrier organised the Paris Wine Tasting of 1976, which unexpectedly elevated the status of California wine and promoted the expansion of wine production in the New World.
Excitement Begins in Mexico
These are the #Chardonnay I found in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Mainly from Chile and Mexico, which is a great sign for the local wine industry that it is trusting this noble variety!

Celebrate Soil Health this World Chardonnay Day, May 21st from Boston
CIBO celebrates the social, cultural, and agricultural importance of chardonnay wine across the world. While the taste is influenced by the process winemakers go through for production, it also depends on one key ingredient, the soil.
Celebrate Soil Health on World Chardonnay Day!
At CIBO, we are proud to bring attention to the agronomy behind wine production. Beneath every grape is a plot of soil that helped to nurture and grow the fruit. This year, we hope to celebrate the importance of soil at vineyards around the globe.
