In parallel with Friel's comments you quoted, I would add "conventional wine is political" and that in any consumer choice we need to consider which set of values to back. Not to be partisan or preachy - we are all ignorant and morally compromised in a world that is too complex for consumer choice to be morally consistent let alone make a systemic difference - but because we need to acknowledge that it's not that the choice of conventional wine (in this particular instance) is somehow neutral.

That’s definitely a good point. I do think consumer choice makes a difference but I understand what you’re getting at.
