I’ve always wondered if you can truly do organic wine. There’s been a lot of debate lately in the news about organics in general and whether or not they are any ‘better’. Well there’s one winery that has been pushing the limits trying to make the most organic wine possible. They are called PureVineWines. They actually prefer a term called Biodynamic wines. Basically they look at the winery as a closed system and don’t bring anything in or out of the winery. So they consider the vines, soil, insects, etc. Obviously they don’t use any pesticides. But in addition they use homeopathic mixtures on the vines and a several other techniques that have been passed down through the generations. And their finished wine contains no sulfates or chemicals. If you didn’t already guess… they are located in Portland, OR. The home of organics foods. So if you have any friends that are into sustainability and organic foods the PureVineWindes Wine Club would be a perfect gift. They’ll receive two great wines every month for around $45 to $55 a month (depending on the wine selection). The founders Andria, Tom, and Joe are definitely creating something unique at PureVineWines.

So let’s have a toast to organic wine,
