Situated along the West Coast of South Africa, Lutzville Vineyards has been producing cool climate wines since 1961. Lutzville’s flagship variety is Sauvignon Blanc and the farm has won many accolades as a result.
Our first step is calculating our footprint as accurately as possible. The CCC calculator is of the utmost importance. We value the fantastic support we get from the friendly Blue North staff. We have just embarked on our reduction journey and are looking seriously at solar power – Lutzville Vineyards
Lutzville Vineyards recycles plastic, glass, metal and paper.
Lutzville Vineyards refrains from keeping the soil bare. The low rainfall in the area does not allow for cover crops to be used effectively, therefore, the farm is looking at natural vegetation to be used as cover crops.
Lutzville Vineyards does not extend farming to the natural veld.
Through this digital recognition platform, we celebrate the Carbon Heroes taking part in the Confronting Climate Change (CCC) Initiative for their considerable effort in calculating and understanding their carbon emissions.
Each Carbon Hero has their own digital QR code that can be displayed on their website and other marketing material, linking directly to their individual profile on the Carbon Heroes website.
The QR code provides a simple and innovative way for customers to learn about each Carbon Hero’s carbon offsetting and other sustainability initiatives, as well as engage with them on social media and other marketing channels.
With the Carbon Heroes QR code we aim to support a global transition towards sustainable development by recognising and celebrating the positive environmental impact of each Carbon Hero. By having a transparent display of their commitment to reducing emissions, Carbon Heroes demonstrate their dedication to a sustainable future, while building trust in their brand.

Carbon Heroes is a recognition platform built on the ethos of transparency and trust. While only emissions datasets graded by Blue North qualify for the platform, we do not independently verify all the information our Heroes choose to post. By signing up to the platform each Carbon Hero acknowledges that they are responsible for the information they share and that, by sharing their sustainability credentials, their information is in the public domain and open to be scrutinised. We welcome such scrutiny. We have a clear set of guidelines for the use of the platform and the qualification for the various digital labels, and reserve the right to revoke the use of the platform where it is found these guidelines are not being followed and/or the information posted is misaligned with the stated ethos. Thank you for helping us maintain the integrity of the Carbon Heroes platform and our efforts to promote greater transparency and sustainability.
