**Booker Vineyard Achieves Full CCOF Organic Certification for Winemaking**
Paso Robles-based Booker Vineyard & Winery, part of Constellation Brands, announced its winemaking operations have earned California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF) certification, completing its shift to fully organic practices from vine to bottle. The recognition builds on prior vineyard certifications, including CCOF in 2021 and Regenerative Organic Certified® in 2023.
The certification process, led by General Manager Pete Turrone and Senior Winemaker Molly Lonborg, required detailed documentation, cellar adjustments, and third-party audits. Founder Eric Jensen, who began organic farming in 2006, said the certification reinforces transparency and environmental responsibility. Booker’s estate now operates under both CCOF and ROC standards, ensuring its wines are produced without synthetic chemicals while supporting soil health and sustainability.
