International Organisation of Vine and Wine
The International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) is a worldwide network that brings together countries involved in winemaking. Established in 1924, it promotes cooperation, research, and the sharing of scientific and technical knowledge to improve the quality, safety, and sustainability of wine production. The OIV develops standards and guidelines for viticulture and enology, helping ensure consistency and fairness in the global wine industry. It also collects and publishes data on wine production and consumption, supporting informed decision-making among producers, regulators, and consumers worldwide.
