I remember seeing the natural way of making wines which is stomping the fruit with your feet. I can still say that other peoples feet are cleaner than pesticides. :) Its bad thing to know that even growing grapes involves pesticides nowadays.

You hit home a point I am often making about organic. Organic on it's own only tells you something about the ingredients. The quality of the wine is all in the winemaking. In my books if we can avoid the pesticides and have great wine too. That's a win - win! Thanks for the additional links.
