This list was prepared for the restauranteur, wine shop or hotel by the Organic Wine Guild. Like the wise old OWL it will inform you as to which wines are made from organic, biodynamic and agri-synthesis grown grapes. A table of contents of wineries, by alphabetical order is listed below. A short glossary of definitions and philosophies is forthcoming. We would like to recommend you visit the Organic Wine Guild Founder's website at www.northofsf.com for more information and a list of "mom & pop" businesses in the northern California Wine Country.
