Claim summary · not a verbatim quotation
Large percentages of California wines test positive for glyphosate.
The finding
What the evidence shows
The tests he is likely thinking of did find glyphosate in nearly every wine they tested. A 2016 Moms Across America test found it in all 10 California wines, and a 2019 U.S. PIRG test found it in 19 of 20 beers and wines, including Sutter Home, Beringer and Barefoot. But these were small advocacy-group samples, not a representative survey of California wine, and the amounts were in parts per billion, far below EPA and California safety limits, which the framing leaves out.
