Biodynamic wine is produced from grapes grown using biodynamic agricultural principles, an approach that treats the vineyard as an interconnected ecological system. Biodynamic farming generally focuses on soil health, biodiversity, natural cycles, and reducing dependence on synthetic agricultural inputs. Some biodynamic growers use specially prepared composts and follow agricultural calendars based on astronomical or seasonal observations. Biodynamic farming is related to organic agriculture but has additional practices and philosophies that distinguish it from standard organic certification. The actual winemaking process can vary significantly between producers, so consumers should review the winery's production information and certification details when evaluating a biodynamic wine.
