Choose Fairtrade: Los Robles Fairtrade wines
There are more and more great Fairtrade wines coming onto the market in the UK, one of which is the Los Robles range of wines. Los Robles wines are produced by a wine cooperative in Chile’s Curicó valley, and owned by its 67 members - small and medium size wine growers. It’s one of the last wine coops left in Chile today - the Pinochet dictatorship caused most to die out in the 1970s. Los Robles, however, is one that survived.
15 to 20 % of Los Robles wine is Fairtrade certified, with the coop aiming for 100 % certification.
A range of Los Robles Fairtrade wines are available from John Lewis.
