What does the Organic label involve in winemaking?
The pursuit of authenticity and environmental respect in wine production has led to the growing adoption of the Organic label. This label, guided by the specifications of Bio Suisse, represents not only a certification but also a true philosophy for winemakers. Committed to minimizing environmental impact, they turn to production methods that exclude the use of synthetic and ultra-technical products. The goal? To produce wine as naturally as possible, in harmony with nature.
The Bio Suisse specifications
At the heart of this organic approach is the Bio Suisse specifications, a rigorous document that establishes the standards for organic production. Fundamental principles include the preservation of biodiversity, crop rotation, and the prohibition of GMOs. The specifications also impose strict restrictions on the products and technologies that can be used, favoring those that are natural and environmentally friendly. The objective of being close to nature is clear: to produce wine in an ethical and sustainable way.
From the vineyard to the cellar
The organic logic applies to all stages of production, from the vineyard to the cellar. It starts with ecological management of the vineyard, where the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides is prohibited. Organic winemaking techniques follow the same approach, prioritizing the use of indigenous yeasts and avoiding excessive manipulation of the wine. The goal is simple: to avoid synthetic products to ensure a pure and natural product.
Organic production
Choosing organic also means opting for production with multiple environmental benefits. This includes reducing soil erosion, conserving water resources, and protecting ecosystems. The health benefits are also significant, with wines containing fewer sulfites and chemical residues. As for the impact on the taste and quality of the wine, many highlight the richness and authenticity of the flavors in organic wines.
