France: Organics chief slams Bettane and Desseauve
Feb 6, 2013 6
(Decanter) - The head of France’s organic wine body has slammed wine critics Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve for an article that contained, in the organisation's view, a ‘fundamental misunderstanding’ of organic wines. In 1200-word open letter, the Fédération Nationale Interprofessionnelle des Vins de l'Agriculture Biologique strongly criticises the influential writers for an article they contributed to in French magazine Terre de Vins entitled ‘100 organic or nearly organic wines’ (‘100 bios ou toute comme’), and a follow-up article they posted on French wine blog, Bon Vivant.
