(Montrealgazette) - Organic and biodynamic grape growing is no longer on the fringes. But is it better?
I attended a different kind of tasting recently. It was hosted by an organization called The Renaissance des Appellations, whose members – more than 200 wineries from around the world – believe not only in organic and biodynamic grape growing, but eschew many of the winemaking techniques and interventions that have become so commonplace today. This group is self-policing, where member wineries are expected to follow certain guidelines, with the knowledge that they may be inspected by another member winery without notice.
