Why You Should Choose Organic Wine
by John Smith LearnerOrganic wine is becoming more popular than ever. Organic
wine is gaining more new wine lovers and a new market than ever despite its
alcohol content. Beginning from the farm, organic grape farming and wine
processing use less or no artificial chemicals according to the specified
standards. The standards which constitute organic wine are different in
different countries. This article will discuss various reasons why you should
choose organic wine.
Winemaking Grapes
are grown organically.
As the name suggests, Organic grapes are grown without
harmful chemicals, pesticides, and herbicides. The sprayed chemical in
inorganic farming may appear on the grapes as residuals. The toxic chemical
residuals may find their way into the wine and the surroundings deteriorating
the consumer's health and the environment. On the other hand, Organic farmers
use green manures to cover crops, animal manures, water conservation to control
weeds, pests and improve productivity. Thus, the health benefits of organic
wine.
Organic wine
contains less sulfite.
Like any other wine, organic wine manufacturers use sulfur
dioxide to preserve the wine. However, there are regulations regarding sulfite
use in organic wine because of its negative health impact. Depending on the
country, sulfate allowed in organic wine is less than in conventional wine.
Therefore, there are reduced health effects of sulfite in organic wine.
It has fewer
additives.
To improve the color and flavor of conventional wines,
manufacturers incorporate some additives like refined sugar, fining and
clarification agents, and sulphuric acids. These additions are against the law
governing organic wine. These additives may have some adverse health and
environmental impacts making organic wine a better choice.
Contain Less added
sugar
Although grapes contain enough sugar for winemaking, some
winemakers add sugar during fermentation to improve the taste. The added sugar
increases the alcohol content and calories in the wine. In organic wine, there
are little or no added sugars. So, its alcohol content and calories are low.
This phenomenon makes organic wine the best wine to choose.
Lower alcohol
content
As a result of less added sugar in organic wine during
fermentation, the wine contains less alcohol content. Low alcohol content
allows the consumer to take more wine and, therefore, more health
benefits.
Low alcohol
hangovers
Unlike conventional wine, organic wine has lower
headache-causing potential allowing the consumer to be in good condition. This
situation results from fewer sulfites and artificial chemicals in Organic
wine.
Final Words
Due to the healthy and environmental benefits, organic
wine is becoming popular and gaining new wine lovers day by day. As a
result, organic wine
manufacturers are expanding their organic wines and growing processes to
satisfy their customers and fit into the growing market.
