Made with Organic Grapes definition
Made with Organic Grapes means that 100% of the grapes used were organic and that this was overseen by a certifier who will verify that the wine meets all appropriate specifications in the USDA organic regulations. Interestingly, wine “made with organic grapes” may contain up to 100 parts per million of sulfur dioxide. Although all of the grapes used must be certified organic, the other agricultural ingredients do not need to be. Wines that are not “organic,” but are “made with organic grapes,” cannot use the USDA Organic Shield.
