What is Organic Wine?
When it comes to wine, there's a lot to love. From the rich, complex flavors to the way it brings people together, wine is a true delight. But did you know there's a type of wine that's even better for you and the environment? Cue... organic wine!
Let's clear up one thing: just because a wine is labeled "organic" doesn't mean it's automatically delicious. However, wines made from organic grapes tend to have a more distinct and pure flavor. Organic grapes are grown without synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides, allowing them to express their true terroir.
But the benefits of organic wines extend beyond taste. Choosing organic means opting for a wine that's better for the environment. Organic vineyards are managed sustainably, respecting the land and its inhabitants. They also tend to use less water, a precious resource in many wine-growing regions.
So, how do you identify organic wines? Look for the organic seal on the bottle, such as the European Green Star Leaf or USDA, or certifications from organizations like Ecocert or Biodyvin. Keep in mind that wines can also be labeled "made with organic grapes" or "organic wine," indicating that the grapes were grown organically but other ingredients may not be.
