In 2004, the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV)
defined the concept of sustainable wine viniculture with the
Vienna resolution CST :
Definition : « Global strategy on the scale of the grape
production and processing systems, incorporating at the same
time the economic sustainability of structures and territories,
producing quality products, considering requirements of
precision in sustainable viticulture, risks to the environment,
products safety and consumer health and valuing of heritage,
historical, cultural, ecological and aesthetic aspects.”
In 2008, the OIV completed its definition with a guide for
Sustainable Vitiviniculture : Environmental Issues (CST01/08)

ISSUES QUALITY / IMAGE
Terroir: symbolic emotional, affective
"We are what we eat. Ignorance of what we have
in our attitude or our glass leads to a loss of
identity, but fortunately, the land restores the
link between the consumer and food. The
symbolic values of the food are those of the soil.
But attention contamination of the soil, physical,
chemical, biological or visual contaminate the
product in the minds of the customer. "
