Biodynamic wine is produced from grapes grown using biodynamic agricultural principles. Biodynamic farming views the vineyard as an interconnected ecosystem and commonly emphasizes soil health, biodiversity, composting, natural cycles, and reduced reliance on synthetic agricultural inputs. Some biodynamic farming practices are influenced by a planting calendar based on astronomical and seasonal cycles. Biodynamic certification may be provided by recognized certification organizations, although practices and certification requirements can vary. It is also important to distinguish biodynamic farming from organic certification because the two terms are related but are not identical. A biodynamic wine can have characteristics influenced by grape variety, climate, soil, vineyard location, winemaking techniques, and aging. The farming method alone does not determine whether a wine will taste sweet, dry, acidic, fruity, or full-bodied. If you also want to purchase wine, check the best brands available in your area.
