What you need to know about Organic Wine

True Terroir
Wines made from organic grapes tend to be more true to what wine aficionados call "terroir" or what we call 'taste of place'. With no chemical pesticides or fertilizers, certified organic grapes are raised more purely. You don't need to be a sommelier to know that synthetic chemicals only get in the way of true terroir taste.

Low in Sulfites
Sulfites, also known Sulfur dioxide (SO2 ) are a naturally occurring by-product of fermentation, and they are also added to wine after fermentation to prevent the growth of bacteria. This makes the wine stable so the taste will not change during transportation or storage, and also allows the wine to age. Conventional wines may contain sulfite levels up to 350 parts per million (ppm) while wines made from certified organic grapes are required to contain less than 100 ppm.

99.99% Organic
Because wines made with organic grapes cannot exceed 100 ppm of sulfites, the wine is at least 99.99% organic grapes and .01% (or less) sulfites. This greatly exceeds the 95% requirement to use the USDA organic seal. Wine with added sulfites must be labeled as "made with organic grapes" and cannot use the USDA organic seal.

Isn't all wine organic?
No. Wine grapes are an agricultural product. Conventional wine grapes are chemically treated like any other agricultural product to deal with pests, viruses, weeds, fungi, and to increase yield. Wine growers are romanticized as purists, but most are dependent on chemicals. Because there are chemicals on the grapes, they end up in your bottle.

Vegan
Wine labels are not required to declare the use of animal by-products in the winemaking process. Animal by-products often used in clarifying or filtering wine include Isinglass (derived from fish), gelatin (derived from animal hooves) casein (a milk protein) and egg whites. Vegan wines are not produced with an animal product and are clarified with bentonite clay.
