ABSTRACT

In considering various premises of stakeholder theory, this study enhances the understanding of sustainable practices among wineries offering wine tourism experiences. Face-to-face interviews carried out with winery owners-managers operating in three wine regions of emerging economies highlight adherence to the four pillars of sustainability at various levels, and reveal four key dimensions, each associated with the level of involvement in sustainable practices. Accordingly, the most fulfilling, the ‘full-glass’ dimension, illustrates observance to environmental, social, economic, and cultural sustainability. Several proposed frameworks illustrate conceptually and empirically the significance of the four pillars in the context of sustainable wine tourism.

摘要

在考虑利益相关者理论的各种前提下，本研究增强了对提供葡萄酒旅游体验的酿酒厂的可持续实践的理解。与在新兴经济体三个葡萄酒产区经营的酒厂所有者和经理进行的面对面访谈强调了在各个层面坚持可持续发展的四大支柱，并揭示了四个关键维度，每个维度都与可持续实践的参与程度相关。因此，最令人满意的“全玻璃”维度说明了对环境、社会、经济和文化可持续性的遵守。几个提议的框架从概念上和经验上说明了四个支柱在可持续葡萄酒旅游背景下的重要性。
