WHAT ARE NATURAL WINES?Natural wine is a pure expression of the grapes and the terroir they were grown in. Natural producers do not manipulate the wine with chemical additives or physical corrective processes. While the rules for making natural wine are not regulated by any governing body, there are a few characteristics that distinguish vino naturale from its standard counterparts. These include organically farmed grapes, hand harvesting and de-stemming, native yeast fermentation, no filtration or fining and little to no additives. |
