I have searched here for info on organic wine making but haven't had any luck.
I am mainly interested in sanitizing/killing wild yeast without using sulfites or other cemicals. is there any one with ideas on this?
 
If you use fruit juice that is already pasteurized, you wouldn't need to add chemicals to the juice to suppress any wild yeasts, and you could sanitize any equipment in boiling water.

If you are using wild or fresh fruit, I guess you could pasteurize the juice before fermentation, but I think you run the risk of setting the pectins. Maybe others will have other ideas for you.
