Controversy, disputes, DRAMA...via Twitter, Facebook and amongst the wordplay of the blogosphere. Everyone loves a good controversy...and why not?

For the past few months in the wine industry nothing is hotter than the BioD debate. In a nutshell (an organic one of course) is biodynamics all just marketing bull, another way to push our juice, a scheme that was create in dark hallways to manipulate the masses...Makes for great drama, no? I am not here to talk about merits of biodynamics, that is for another forum, another time... But rather point out that behind the drama is debate and what could be better for progress than that?

Where I take issue is when we go into these conversations with a clear cut vision that there is to be a winner and there is to be a loser... As we see it there is no right or wrong answer...and that it the beauty of debates. The more we open the dialogs, the more we challenge the status quo and the better wine producers we all become. Despite whatever road we choose to take to get the wine into the bottle.

So skeptics keep asking prodding questions!
