the eu commission has withdrawn draft proposals to introduce standards for the production of organic wine, citing an unwillingness to dilute organic rules. wine has so far been excluded from the eu organic regulation, which only extends to the grapes used in wine production. organic wine has therefore been marketed only as wine produced from organic grapes. draft proposals had been under consideration within the standing committee on organic foodstuffs and a number of bilateral meetings to develop specific standards for organic wine.
