CA wineries are very environmentally friendly. My only source is Wine Spectator and the local newspaper. The wineries pride themselves on being eco-friendly. It’s not like the midwest where there are pesticides on corn all the time. Wine is very organic. About the only thing wineries use is a fungicide if the weather is too moist.

The expansion of California wineries is carefully controlled and it is often that the expansion is to a defunct or private winery that will benefit from working with a larger group. As a whole California’s wineries are very environmentally conscious and they work to develop and enforce environmental safety regulations that might put their crops at risk.
