Certified B Corporation
We are proud to meet the highest standards for social responsibility and environmental performance. Certified B Corp practices are accelerating a global culture shift to redefine success in business and build a more inclusive and sustainable economy.
What Exactly is a Certified B Corporation?
In essence, B Corps are obligated to prioritize people and planet at the same levels as profits. We achieve this by considering how every aspect of our business decisions will affect workers, customers, suppliers, our community, and the environment. It’s our hope that by setting a new standard and leading a global movement to use business as a force for good, we can build a more inclusive and sustainable economy.

Leading with Purpose
At Bonterra, we seek to cultivate the future through regenerative organic practices, leaving the earth better than we found it.
America’s #1 Organic Winery
Every bottle of our wine is made with 100% organic grapes.
Organic farming is the very heart of Bonterra. As America’s #1 organic winery, we’ve long championed organic farming practices in the wine industry and beyond.
California Certified Organic Farmers
We verify our organic claims through CCOF’s third-party certification.
We started farming organically in 1987. And we feel the same today as we did back then: farming is a two-way relationship with the land.
Regenerative Organic Certified®
Today, Bonterra is the largest winery to achieve this rigorous certification.
Regenerative organic agriculture is a collection of practices that focus on regenerating soil health and the full farm ecosystem.
