“Organic wine”: European experts hold discussions in Brussels on the challenges and opportunities facing this new product and on the standards with which it will have to
comply.

As  of  2010,  consumers  will  be  able  to  buy  ‘organic  wine’.  European  legislation  on  organic farming will include the product for the first time. Currently, consumers can purchase wines with the designation ‘wine produced from organic grapes’.
European experts meeting in Brussels today under the auspices of Copa-Cogeca and the Ceev discussed  the challenges and opportunities  facing organic wine as well as  the way  in which  it can be incorporated into the complex package of existing standards.
