Organic Wine Sales Take Off At Virgin Wines
Syndicated By: Article99.com
Norwich, Norflok, United Kingdom (PRarticle.com) - Virgin Wines has sold more organic wine in the last 12 months than ever before. Like for like sales over the period have increased by 118% compared to the previous year.
The number of bottles of organic wine sold over the New Year period, in particular, increased, with the company selling more than seven times the amount of organic wine in January 2008 compared to the same month in 2007.
Louise Truswell, PR Executive of Virgin Wines said: "We are particularly pleased to see this increase in interest in organic wines from our customers. As a company, Virgin Wines is constantly striving to support small producers who grow their vines and make their wines in a way that protects the natural environment. We carry a range of formally certified organic wines, and we also source wines from producers who, although not certified organic, subscribe to the organic and bio-dynamic philosophy. As wine drinkers become more concerned with both looking after the natural environment and with eating and drinking healthily, we would expect sales of organic wines to continue to increase in the future."
