OUR PEOPLE, OUR PROJECT YEARS OF INNOVATION For over 80 years, the UDP has made wine with an overriding emphasis on quality thanks to considerable expertise and state-of-the-art facilities enabling them to adapt to every situation. The combination of professional know-how and technical prowess has proved to be a major source of development, and the cellar is widely considered one of the major players in Bordeaux in terms of innovative winemaking. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the investment made in 2003 in a new gravity flow cellar housing 141 stainless steel vats – the largest of its kind in Europe. The Union de Producteurs de Saint Emilion intends to continue in this vein, maintaining their efforts in terms of quality, marketing, sales, management, and customer relations. Although technological developments will be a key factor in the cellar's success in the coming years, the major challenge is to reconcile the unique character of wines from Saint Emilion's age-old terroir and the modern identity sought by the Union des Producteurs. Our project Our project has three main thrusts: passion, quality, and responsibility. Being a winegrower is not simply a job: it is a way of life that means living in harmony with nature. It also entails the making of a product reflecting infinite patience and work in the vineyard, as well as a group effort putting people at the heart of both innovation and tradition. Because technical advances would be nothing without skilled people to apply them and adapt them to the environment, the Union de Producteurs de Saint Emilion relies on an experienced, committed team. This consists of a management department, a technical department in charge of production, maintenance, and winemaking facilities, as well as a commercial department responsible for selling the wines. Of course, there are other jobs that complement the above: quality control, accounting, information technology, marketing, and communication. Thanks to 4 oenologists and a viticultural advisor, winegrowers receive assistance all year long with regard to every type of vineyard operation. Their advice is vital and plays an essential role in the success of each vintage. Good communication between the various departments, especially between the technical and commercial teams, is another key factor in UDP's success. Thanks to the testing of consumer preferences, the desirable characteristics of wines are regularly evaluated to make sure that the style of wines made by the Union de Producteurs de Saint Emilion corresponds to market demand. In creating a marketing and communication department, the Union de Producteurs clearly proved their ambition to develop a strong, attractive brand for both consumers and prospective new members.
