Organic & Biodynamic Wines

Do you know how are the mass production wines made?

Wine grapes are mostly grown in artificially created sterile environment by pesticides, herbicides and fungicides.
Grapes are from modern clones for high yield and disease resistance.
Commercial fertilizer adds chemical supplement on the surface but pollutes local water.
Machine harvest includes rotten grapes and dirt easily for winemaking.
During vinification, grape juice will have sulfites SO2 added to prevent spoilage. However, sulphites create allergy problem and hangovers to wine drinkers.
Un-natural yeasts create unnatural aromas and flavours.
Machines used in winemaking will extract more colour, body and alcohol, but sometimes over extract grapes, which will create bitterness and roughness for wine.
Adding sugar and acidity will create standardized wine without character of terroir.
Sulphites level: 160-210 mg/l

About Biodynamic Wines

Biodynamic Concept is derived in 1920 by Rudolf Steiner in Austria based on fundamentals of organic farming.
The concept enhances natural winemaking methods by integrating the rhythm of the earth, with atmosphere of the vineyard and winery, in alignment with lunar calendar and astrology cycle.
It promotes life of soil and organism in vineyard, balancing the eco system in grapes growing and wine making process.
Biodynamic wineries believe that healthy and happy vineyard can resist disease and extreme climate on its own.
A vineyard is defined as a living organism on its own.
The result is creating wines that best express the purity, complexity and balance of wine.
Sulphites level: 35-45 mg/ l
Domaine Romanee Conti is the most premium winery in the world, and has practiced biodynamic winemaking for decades. Other wineries that are certified biodynamic or in conversion include Chateau Pontet Canet and Chateau Margaux.
EU Certification is Biodivin. International certification is Demeter Biodynamic.
