Could the journalist not be bothered to ask what the source of the As is? Is it naturally occurring in the soil where the grapes are grown? Does it come from fertilizers or pesticides? Equipment sanitizing? Elves?

Interesting.

Fancy grape growers brag about their soil, and some about lack of water that makes the grapes struggle (and probably concentrates the As).

If the wineries are using their own wells, it could be from the water.
