In 2025, the wine market in Vietnam recorded strong growth in organic wines. According to a survey by ISGVN, over 40% of young consumers prioritize products with natural origins and sustainable production processes.
Brands such as Domaine Leflaive, Emiliana, and Bonterra have begun expanding distribution in Vietnam through major importers. Sommeliers evaluate this as a positive trend, promoting awareness of quality and environment in the wine industry.
ISGVN will organize a specialized seminar on organic wines in November, for students and wine enthusiasts.
