Last week, the General Assembly of the International Organization of Vine and Wine (OIV) formally adopted OIV-VITI Resolution 703-2024 “OIV Definitions and Recommendations on Old Vines and Old Vineyards in the Viticulture Sector”. Among the main initiatives are named: “Conference on old vines”, “Project on old vines”, “Register of old vines” and the Italian “Censimento Vecchie Vigne”. Details about the resolution and one of its initiatives – the “Register of old vines” were written on the website of Alder Yarrow, Wine Travel Awards nominee in Wine & Food Influencer/Expert Opinion and Author of the Year.
“As the person behind the current incarnation of The Old Vine Registry, I am extremely proud that this project will help raise awareness of old vines and their value in the wine industry,” says Alder Yarrow, american wine and restaurant blogger, the publisher of Vinography, one of the most highly rated wine blogs.
The adopted resolution was the result of a long discussion among OIV experts in the Viticulture Commission and was based on specific official consultations among OIV member states. We will remind that on November 4, 2022, at the OIV General Assembly in Mexico, the restoration of Ukraine’s membership in this authoritative international organization was officially announced.
Therefore, the OIV delegation agreed and adopted:
The OIV has given a number of reasons why such a definition makes sense for the industry as a whole. These include:
These key factors led to the creation of The Old Vine Registry.
Alder Yarrow’s website states that the main aim of the Register is to have a database of 10,000 vineyards by 2027 and to do this he wants to recruit volunteers, “we need more volunteer vineyard hunters who are willing to do some research to get more vineyards into the Register”.
Alder Yarrow asks anyone interested in helping with the research/finding/compiling of vineyard databases to contact him personally at oldvineregistry at gmail.com.
The Old Vine Registry also needs financial support. “The Old Vine Registry was created with a generous initial grant from Jackson Family Wines, but we need ongoing funding to make it happen. Today, it is important for us to improve the functionality of the website: expanding the search function; integration of vineyard maps; creation of a database of photographs of vineyards, etc. If you or someone you know is interested in contributing to the world’s largest and most authoritative database of old vineyards, please contact us,” writes Alder Yarrow.
