ORGANIC WINE

Inspired by the evocative expression ‘organic', some people have tried to sell organic wine, it is however important to clear one thing up right from the start, ‘organic wine' per se, does not exist... At the moment the only guidelines concerning organic products and wine, are for the production of organic GRAPES, which are referred to in the European regulatory certificate 2092/91 (which defines organic agriculture). However it can also be said that if nature is left to follow its course the fermentative process of turning grapes into wine is just about as organic as a process can get. So to be precise, the part of the process which is regulated and certified as organic, is indeed the cultivation of the raw material, and not the techniques of or producing of wine... Unfortunately the quality of wine is dictated by an industrial need to obtain a product that is always the same, but nature works hard to go in the opposite direction.
