Savor takes another step in its commitment to green practices
Savor Catering at Marion Oliver McCaw Hall is pleased to announce a partnership with Cork ReHarvest, a recycling program to reclaim a small portion of the estimated 13 billion natural cork wine stoppers sold into the world market each year. Savor is already an industry leader in introducing green standards and programs to public facilities . Initiatives aimed at minimizing our carbon footprint include purchasing locally produced and sustainably raised products and recycling and composting our waste whenever possible.
It seems patrons of the arts do enjoy a nice glass of wine before seeing an opera or ballet. In December alone Savor Catering at McCaw Hall will pop just over 2,000 corks.

I’ve just come back from the “Green Wine Summit” in Santa Rosa CA and did I ever learn a lot. It was a wonderful opportunity to see so many people from all aspects of the wine industry coming together to learn and to teach about the advancements in sustainable, organic and bio dynamic wine making. We learned about the publics view of sustainable and organic wines as well as their concerns about “green washing”. There were seminars about local  and nationwide programs for lowering CO2 emissions and becoming carbon neutral. I am very honored to be part of this growing movement to improve land use and bring a more natural and sustainable product to the world of wine.
