“…In both countries, the preferences of wine consumers are mainly driven by proximity to wine-producing areas and the wine producers; geographical indications (i.e., Protected Designations of Origin and Protected Geographical Indications) play a relevant role in wine-consumer choices (e.g., Casini et al 2009). Sustainable consciousness has only recently begun to increase among wine producers and consumers (Flores 2018;Moscovici and Reed 2018). Therefore, it is interesting to analyse whether similar trends of perceptions can be found in the two countries.…”

“…Recent studies have highlighted that different sustainability certifications have appeared in the past decade in many wine-producing regions (Flores 2018;Martins et al 2018;Moscovici and Reed 2018). However, the management of sustainability remains underdeveloped in many of the certification frameworks, and the elaboration of new business strategies and policies in line with consumer demand is also lacking (Martins et al 2018).…”

“…Flores (2018) noted that sustainability frameworks focus on operational issues, while their strategic thinking remains underdeveloped. In addition, according to Moscovici and Reed (2018), there is a need for more research into the consumer perspective of sustainability certifications.…”

This study offers new insights into the sustainable wine market by exploring consumers’ perceptions of product attributes for six categories of wine that have characteristics of sustainability and one conventional wine. The study investigates product-attribute associations that French and Italian consumers attach to sustainable wines, and whether consumers’ involvement with wine and propensity towards ethically-minded behaviours affect their perceptions of sustainable wines. The research employs a cross-country analysis of France and Italy, and uses a free-choice approach to reveal consumers’ perceptions. The perceptual maps highlight the different attribute dimensions associated with conventional wines and sustainable wines. Health benefits, taste, and ethics emerge as the most relevant discriminant dimensions. The study finds that consumers involved with wine demonstrate a greater ability to evaluate product-attribute associations for sustainable wines than do ethically-minded consumers who are not involved with wine. The study elaborates some practical implications of this result for wineries. In particular, the study highlights that consumers associate different characteristics and beneficial aspects with different categories of sustainable wines; this also depends on their level of involvement with wine. The results demonstrate that sustainable wine marketers should, in their marketing and communication, take into stronger consideration the level of consumer involvement with wine and the specific associations made by consumers with the sustainable wine category they want to promote.

“…The increasing attention to sustainability is pushing the construction sector to build more sustainable buildings (Navarro et al ). In this regard, the wine sector has placed environmental sustainability in a priority position, due to both the consumer's demand for more information regarding the environmental impact of their purchases and the growing interest in environmental issues (Moscovici and Reed ). As a result, several sustainability metrics have been proposed.…”

“…Antagonistic standards that do not overlap can create a situation where no compromise is possible because there is no benefit. All building standards are, in this regard, social accords favouring a precise group of beneficiaries because they incorporate the interests of those who actually make the standards (Moscovici and Reed ).…”

The wine sector worldwide consumes a considerable amount of energy, with much of it used for cooling and ventilating cellars (ageing rooms). For this reason, the design of energy efficient cellars is increasingly gaining importance. With the aim of developing cellars that require little or no energy to maintain wine maturation conditions constant, this article presents a synopsis of the principles of cellar design for reducing the energy demand of cellars and a graphical review of actual cellars. The principles are based on the implementation of relevant parameters, such as cellar orientation, shape, depth, envelope system, passive cooling mechanisms and shading. A chronology of cellar monitoring and modelling is presented because of its direct influence on the hygrothermal behaviour and design of cellars. Previous studies in the literature were analysed to determine the underlying influence of these parameters on total energy demand and to suggest the best design options. This analysis is also based on the experience of the authors and will be useful for those involved in the design of energy saving wine cellars.
