Dry Farming & Climate Resilience

As climate change continues to challenge traditional viticulture, the need for sustainable, water-efficient practices has never been more urgent. In this Climate Talk, we’ll explore how dry farming can help vineyards adapt to increasing temperatures and water scarcity—preserving both the health of the vines and the character of the wines they produce.

We’re honored to have with us a distinguished panel of experts: Linda Johnson-Bell, wine author and climate commentator; Guillaume Eicholz, viticulture consultant and researcher; David Guimarães, winemaker and advocate for dry farming Port Wine production; and Kees van Leeuwen, renowned scientist in viticulture and terroir.

Together, they’ll share insights, research, and experiences on how innovation and tradition can come together to build climate resilience in vineyards worldwide.
