In 1930, in issue no. 24 of the “BULLETIN INTERNATIONAL DU VIN”, the OIV – then the “International Wine Office”, founded on 29 November 1924 – publishes regulations governing the first O.I.V. Awards.
This is a call for applications, firstly, to write text and captions in French or in one of the languages of the OIV “member” countries, and secondly, to illustrate this “promotional leaflet” in support of wine and its health benefits, entitled: “The Truth about Wine”. Candidates are required to indicate the various virtues of drinking wine from “early childhood”: as a “tonic” or “medicinal vehicle in small doses as prescribed by a doctor”. Then they are to specify that, from the age of 10-12, “moderate doses of wine should form part of main meals”. Finally, they are instructed that, for adults, specifically “healthy individuals ... all the reasons in favour of using this beverage should be emphasised”.

In line with the new Strategic Plan 2020-2024, the Director General of the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV), Pau Roca, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Secretary-General of the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), Zurab Pololikashvili, with the objective of promoting wine tourism at the global level.
The two intergovernmental organisations met on 24 January at the UNWTO headquarters in Madrid, Spain, to sign this agreement in principle, seeking to give impetus to guidelines and concrete actions designed to foster wine tourism.
Pau Roca considers that “this joint work will make it possible to carry out the axes of the Strategic Plan of the OIV and its goals, and at the same time achieve 13 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations”. The OIV Strategic Plan specifically makes reference to the need to “encourage and participate in the development of wine tourism, viticultural landscape and terroirs, highlighting their importance for society”.
