Thoughts on assessment

This article seems more on the B-side than not, but I do have concerns about the lack of a winemaking & viticulture section. Some of the pertinent details are covered in relevant in wine region section but extra opinions on the assessment is welcomed. Agne^Cheese/^Wine 00:16, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Clean up and copy edit

I've spent several hours cleaning this up. The major problems come from widespread copying and pasting from source material and poor attempts to rephrase to avoid copyvio. The prose was therefore in the typical essay style of the journallists in the wines reviews it was taken from. A lot of it is still inappropriate for an ecyclopedia and contains journalists' POV. The fact that these sources are referenced, does not mean that the journalists' own POV should be interpreted as fact.--Kudpung (talk) 01:16, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Of course there have been numerous edits made by several dozen editors since, but I will note that when I first wrote the large majority of text back in Feb 2008, not a single item was copied or pasted nor were any of the sources wine reviews. Agne^Cheese/^Wine 07:58, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Les Baux & organic status

The article incorrectly stated that Les Baux requires 100% biodynamic farming. This is wrong. A common misconception is that the appellation requires 100% organic, but this is also incorrect - it requires zero herbicides, but no organic certification.

I have provided references to up-to-date sources on the matter, including the AOC regulations, and removed the mistaken 2006 reference to biodynamic. Grebsky (talk) 12:44, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
