Wine is an ancient drink that is part of the culture
and history of many people around the world. In Portugal, it is thought that
its beginning dates back to 2000 years BC.
In recent years, interest in organic wine has grown, a
category that has been conquering more and more space among wine lovers.
And it’s no wonder: in addition to being produced in a
more sustainable way, organic wines bring many benefits to those who consume
them and also to the environment.
But, after all, what is an organic wine? In short, it
is a wine produced from grapes grown in a more natural way, without the use of
chemicals that are harmful to the environment and health. In addition, the
winemaking process of organic wine is carried out in such a way as to preserve
the natural characteristics of the grape as much as possible, resulting in a
more genuine wine with authentic aromas and flavors.
But the benefits of organic wine go beyond flavor and
quality. Here are some of the main benefits of organic wine for consumers,
producers and the environment.
Benefits for the consumer:
Organic wines are produced without the use of
synthetic chemicals, pesticides or herbicides, which makes them a healthier
option for those who consume them. Furthermore, as the production process seeks
to minimize human intervention, organic wines tend to have a more authentic
flavor and a greater expression of terroir.
Therefore, many wine connoisseurs prefer organic wines for their quality and
unique taste.
Benefits for Producers:
The production of organic wines follows sustainable
agricultural practices, which contributes to the conservation of the
environment and preservation of local biodiversity. The cultivation of grapes
for the production of organic wines is done in a way to prevent soil erosion,
protect the local fauna and flora and promote the health of the ecosystem.
Benefits for the environment:
The cultivation of grapes for the production of
organic wines is done in a way that respects the environment and preserves
local biodiversity. This means that the production of organic wines contributes
to the conservation of nature and to the mitigation of environmental impacts.
In addition, the use of natural
fertilizers and the reduction of water and energy
consumption make the production of organic wines more sustainable and less
harmful to the environment.
