Organic Wine: Green Labels for Respecting the Land

Perhaps you've already begun exploring the world of organic wines, but do you truly understand what it entails?

At its core, organic winemaking revolves around nurturing grapevines without the use of harmful chemicals like pesticides and herbicides during the crucial grape-growing phase. Opting for organic wines allows you to savor your favorite vintages without the worry of ingesting these potentially toxic substances.

However, when discussing organic wines, it's essential to touch upon the topic of sulfite additions during the fermentation process at the winery. In the European Union, and subsequently in France, organic winemakers are permitted to use sulfites as preservatives, but the maximum allowable levels are significantly lower than those in conventional wine production. This reduction in sulfite content translates to a more natural and healthier wine, often resulting in fewer headaches for the discerning consumer.

The upshot is that organic wine is a more natural and environmentally friendly product, both in its production and consumption. It's a healthier choice that not only benefits you but also the planet.

Many of our esteemed winemakers have earned certificates of conformity in organic farming, which you can readily identify by the distinctive green stamp proudly displayed on their bottles.
