Living sustainably doesn’t have to mean a total lifestyle overhaul. Sometimes, the smallest change, like how you sip wine or toss your cork, can create a meaningful impact.

At Scout & Cellar, sustainability isn’t just something we talk about. It’s built into everything we do, from soil to sip.

Below are four simple and stress-free ways to make your wine ritual a little greener.

🍾 1. Reuse Your Wine Bottles

Finished your Clean-Crafted™ bottle? Don’t toss it — repurpose it.

Our bottles make beautiful, minimalist home decor pieces:

• Use one as a flower vase on your dining table
  

• Fill with filtered water and use as a carafe
  

• Drop in a taper candle for an instant candle holder
  
  

One bottle = great wine and functional decor.

📦 2. Recycle Your Shipping Materials

Every single piece of our order boxes are fully recyclable (including the inserts and dividers).

Be sure to:

• Break down the cardboard box
  

• Remove and flatten internal inserts
  

• Add them to your curbside recycling bin
  
  

This small step keeps unnecessary waste out of landfills.

🌱 3. Compost Your Corks

We primarily use natural corks for our Clean-Crafted™ wines. These natural corks are a renewable material that can go straight into your compost bin.

Not composting? No problem:

• Save corks for a DIY craft project
  

• Collect them in a jar as wine memories
  

• Donate to local programs that upcycle corks into flooring or insulation
  
  

Want to go even greener? Select wines with minimal packaging and clean ingredients.
