Statement
As an Environmental Engineer my commitment is to protect our most important element on earth; soil. This comes with a great responsibility to reduce the use of pesticides and herbicides on the grapevine using various Environmental friendly techniques to protect the vine and keep the eco-system of the vineyard healthy. 
I’m also very intrigued with the water use in the agriculture sector and how it’s tied to global warming, this will soon hurt Aoc’s worldwide, as we see it damaging vineyards in Europe and California with forest fires and water droughts. My passion is to make great quality wine while trying not to intervine with the chemical processes of the oenological phases during fermentation. Merging environmentalism and innovative winemaking skills to a unique definition of Mexican terroirs.
