While the world today loves the new and shiny, the world of wine is setting itself apart. The Old Vine Registry (OVR) is now three years old and supported by stalwarts and experts across the wine world. Now they have launched a new seal, which can be placed on the label of a bottle of wine from genuinely certified old vines.
Tamlyn Currin from jancisrobinson.com reports on the latest excitement from the world of old vines, as the seals are revealed. Look out for them on your next bottle of wine made from old vines.
Reports Currin: “The OVR is launching a seal that recognises, officially, that a wine or a vineyard has its place in the Old Vine Registry. From 1 October 2026, producers with verified vineyards can, for a very modest, one-off fee, display a physical Old Vine Registry seal on bottles, vineyards, and winery signs, and a digital seal on websites and socials. Importers, retailers, wine competitions and wine publications will also be able to use the seal.”
