Oregon Wine Board ending sustainable program
The 2012 vintage appears to be the last for the Oregon Wine Board’s Certified Sustainable Wine Program, which was intended to bring multiple sustainable certifications under one logo. Launched in 2008, the program aimed to make it easier for consumers to find sustainable wines and clear up the confusion between different entities that certify sustainable products. Staff changes had left the program in limbo, and the board decided recently to end its support of the program and grant its remaining revenue of $10,600 to Low Input Viticulture and Enology (LIVE).
