This Valentines Day you may prefer an foreign wine to the local selections below. If the local selections below don’t satisfy your taste for the exotic then at least try to go for an organic foreign. Several countries including, but not limited to France, Italy, Spain and Chile, boast organic vineyards. Spain, for example offers two organic wines. One from Cellar Vinos Piñol and another, Genium Ecologic, named for its environmentally responsible production.

The vineyards of Château Bousquette, a 50 acre family estate in the South of France also grows certified organic grapes. Italy also offers several organic vineyards, as does Chile with such popular wines as the Vinedos Organicos Emiliana Natura Carmenere.
