(Decanter) - EU-produced organic wines have won the right to use the label ‘Organic Wine’ or ‘Vin Biologique’. The new terms can be used instead of the former, more opaque wording: ‘Wine issued from organic grapes’.
The European-wide change to the labeling laws will come into effect from 1 August.
Gwenaelle le Guillou, director of Syndicat des Vignerons Bio d’Aquitaine told Decanter.com organic wines would now have the right to carry an identifying logo, as any other organic product does.
