European grown up with that.

Don't buy american wine for example (not only cause is unbearably sweet), cause of pesticides allowed.

They use fungicides on vineyards in Europe though. In France there are more people diagnosed with Parkinson’s around vineyards than anywhere else in the country

Parkinson's disease can be recognized as an occupational disease for people who have used herbicides, fungicides, or insecticides frequently and for many years in a professional context. The fact that Parkinson's disease is now recognized as an occupational disease means that those affected are entitled to support from the employers' liability insurance association if the disease developed as a result of their occupational activity.

I have seen some from California

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I'm from the US and the only wine from the US I'd buy is from Cali. There are wineries all over, butost of the US really doesn't have a great climate for wining. Cali has some solid wines though.

I would expect that to be the case in France. Other European countries have a wider selection to choose from.
