Organically grown produce is becoming more and more popular as consumers become more aware and therefore more concerned about the health and safety of the food they eat.
There are many positive arguments for choosing organic produce;
- Organic foods do not contain dangerous pesticides
- Organic produce is considered more nutritious than typically grown products, they are said to contain more vitamin C and have a higher quality protein content
- Organic farming is better for the environment
So now it seems more and more people are following suit and choosing organic wine. Wine is considered organic by means of its growing method on the vineyard as well as the wine making and bottling process.
However one big downside to buying organic is the cost. Organic products are more expensive to grow therefore the extra cost is covered by the consumer on the price tag.
So here at the Vino Club we’d like to know whether you buy organic wine, do you prefer the taste? Do you mind paying more for the organic and possibly “healthier” alternative?
