Organic & Biodynamic Wines

Wine produced from organically grown grapes. Meaning that no chemical fertilisers, pesticides or herbicides have been used in the growing of the grapes. Organic wines generally have less sulphur in them too due to legal restrictions. Whilst Organic wines used to come at a great extra cost, thankfully this is no longer the case and we have some excellent value for money Organic wines.

Biodynamic wines are made using biodynamic methods to both grow the fruit and in the winery. Whilst some people find the practice somewhat controversial, having experienced Biodynamic wine growing first hand in several wineries around the world, I can honestly say the processes employed make perfect sense. It may be more time consuming and expensive in the short term but the long term benefactors can be numerous. Biodynamic wines by definition will also be Organic but they also must follow additional standards laid down by the Demeter Association.
