About Carboy Winery
”Since 2016, our award-winning wines have helped lift the Colorado wine industry into prominence as a wine region ripe with possibilities. Through ambitious winemaking and innovation with new varietal wines, sparkling wines, and wine seltzers, we have helped turn a state known for its beer into one that creates exciting and adventurous wines. We craft impactful wines that reveal the extraordinary terroir, and unmistakable typicity of Colorado's Grand Valley and Washington's Horse Heaven Hills AVA's.
A great glass of wine starts in the vineyard, which is why we pride ourselves on our relationship with our growers and incredible winemaking team. In 2021 we added 30+ acres of estate vineyards in Grand Valley, Colorado, making us one of the largest producers in the state. Adventuring westward, we expanded our winemaking operation to Washington state's Horse Heaven Hills, planting 30 acres of vines to make and produce our own brand of Washington wines. Our tale of two states embodies the spirit of exploration as we lead the charge into the wild west of American winemaking.”
Carboy Winery has been a Zero Foodprint Member since 2023.

About Zero Foodprint Membership
Zero Foodprint began as an effort for restaurants to reduce and eventually zero out their climate impacts. After crunching all the numbers, one thing was clear: the vast majority of the emissions inherent in a meal happen before the ingredients ever make it to the restaurant or processing facility. Food and beverage production accounts for more than 1/3 of global emissions - but it doesn’t have to be that way.
We can change the way that food is grown. By directly funding practices like compost application, managed grazing, and cover-cropping, Zero Foodprint members team up with farmers to create healthier soil, which makes more delicious, nutritious, and resilient crops while also conserving water and drawing down carbon. Members like Carboy Winery have committed a portion of sales to Zero Foodprint to make our innovative work possible.
Zero Foodprint (ZFP) is a nonprofit organization restoring the climate, one acre at a time. We believe that by regenerating soil, local food economies can play a critical role in reversing the global climate crisis. We work with food and beverage businesses, philanthropy and government to bring the next dollar to implement the next regenerative practice on the next acre. This regenerative economy benefits every person who grows food, every person who sells food, and every person on this planet who eats food.
