Organic wines are wines made from grapes of organic production. This kind of production is performed without the use of chemical products, in revitalized and enriched soil with organic matter only. Leaving aside the use of pollutant products, organic wines combine the best modern practices with agriculture’s traditional knowledges. Organic producers are forced to follow very strict production standards, controlled by certification institutions according international rules.
But if at the vineyards it is possible to accomplish a 100% organic agriculture, the same is not happening at the winery. It is still very difficult to eliminate the use of some products (like the use of sulfur dioxide) from the vinification and conservation process, and for that is the reason there are only a few 100% organic wines.
Changes on eating habits and lifestyles are leading to the rising of more interested consumers on these type of wines and so more and more producers are willing to provide this product option.
Following this trend, we give you some reasons why you should choose organic wines:
1. Organic wines have more nutritional value;
