Red Wine Vs. White Wine: Health Benefits Breakdown, by Dr. Weil

The Organic Wine Company Posted on December 3, 2013 by adminMarch 31, 2021

It is reported that 71 percent of wine drinkers in United States choose red wine, and this majority is on the right track when it comes to the health benefits wine offers. Studies show that the compound resveratrol, found abundantly in red grapes (and blueberries), offers several heath benefits, including antioxidant properties that may lower the risk of type 2 diabetes and may even may help prevent cancer. A two-year animal study found that when a daily dose of resveratrol was administered (the equivalent of two glasses of red wine daily), the risk of developing cancerous tumors went down 50%. So … Continue reading →

Dr. Weil on Organic Wines

The Organic Wine Company Posted on May 29, 2013 by adminMarch 31, 2021

Dr. Weil, world-renowned health specialist, wanted to learn more about organic wines and their health benefits. After our conversation, here is his take: Should You Drink Organic Wine? Can you tell me anything about organic wines? I usually seek out organic produce, but have only recently learned that organic wines are available. Do they contain sulfites? Wines produced under organic standards are becoming more and more available, and some are excellent. Many people who buy and eat only organically grown fruits and vegetables often don’t consider that the grapes grown to make wine might be sprayed with the same pesticides, … Continue reading →

The Origins of Our Rosé

The Organic Wine Company Posted on April 1, 2013 by adminMarch 31, 2021
Rosé is up and coming

I will never be able to look at a rosé wine in my life again without remembering my grandfather. He was a maverick of his time and had the audacity at the ripe age of 75 to dream of bottling his own vin biologique right there on the family’s estate. That wasn’t exactly common in those days in the Languedoc in 1975-78, but it completely aligned with his career as a professor of medicine, dedicated to “First, doing no harm.” I can see him sitting around our family’s table under our iconic 100-year-old pine tree, in La Bousquette, a scene … Continue reading →

Tasting Wine Visually

The Organic Wine Company Posted on March 6, 2013 by adminMarch 31, 2021
Tasting Wine Visually

Those intriguing Microscopic images of our wines are art, but also symbolic or visual clues to taste. Author Sondra Barett woul say you’re looking at the spirit, personality and stylistic expression of wine. Its inner beauty. Sondra and I go way back. Sondra is a PhD biochemist and was seduced by the exquisite expressions of the grape when she was artist-in-residence at a Napa Valley winery more than 30 years ago. Yet her photographic explorations actually began while she was a medical scientist on the faculty at the University of California Medical School. Blending her passions to illuminate and investigate … Continue reading →

Michael Apstein gives a 88 & 87 to La Marouette

Michael Apstein, MD and wine lover, was one of the journalists selected to go to the Millesime annual wine fair. He is a columnist at WineReviewOnLine.com and the recipient of the 2008Press Trophy. Here are his ratings of the Syrah and Chardonnay from La Marouette, both of which he tasted at the Millésime Bio 2013 in France. *   Maison des Terroirs Vivants, IGP Pays d’Oc (Languedoc, France) Syrah “La Marouette” 2012 ($15, The Organic Wine Company): An incredible value, this $15 Syrah manages to combine the attractive slightly beefy and the ripe plumy components that Syrah can deliver. It’s a masterful … Continue reading →

PETA Recommends The Organic Wine Company!

The Organic Wine Company Posted on January 6, 2013 by adminMarch 31, 2021
PETA recommends The Organic Wine Company!

PETA  recommends us as your reliable source for vegan wines! We know what most of you are thinking right now: “But wait…how can wines not be vegan?” PETA reveals the cold truth: “The majority of people are unaware that wine, although made from grapes, may have been made using animal-derived products. During the winemaking process, the liquid is filtered through substances called “fining agents.” This process is used to remove protein, yeast, cloudiness, “off” flavors and colorings, and other organic particles. Popular animal-derived fining agents used in the production of wine include blood and bone marrow, casein (milk protein), chitin … Continue reading →

Michael Apstein rates Chateau Bousquette 93/100!

The Organic Wine Company Posted on January 1, 2013 by adminMarch 31, 2021

From WineReviewOnLine.com Chateau Veronique, Coteaux du Languedoc (France) 2008 91/100 ($16, The Organic Wine Company): The Languedoc is finally getting its act together and transforming itself from the so-called wine lake to a place to find excellent wines. The benefit for consumers is that the prices have yet to catch up to the quality of the wines. The Chateau Veronique is a great example. Herbal and spice nuances meld beautifully with black fruit flavors. Slightly tarry overtones peek out. The tannins are appropriately firm, yet not aggressive or intrusive. For all its size, it has grace and finesse. Not a fruit bomb, … Continue reading →
