How to Drink Natural Wine
Orange Wine to Pét-nat!
Natural wine is trending! It’s a term that refers to a style of wine made using simple or traditional methods, usually produced using grapes that are cultivated without the use of pesticides or herbicides, with no additives other than sulphur dioxide. How to Drink Natural Wine introduces us to this concept, how to keep these wines and how to enjoy them.
Typically, natural wine is produced on a small scale using traditional rather than industrial techniques and fermented with native yeast. In its purest form, natural wine is simply unadulterated fermented grape juice with no additives in the winemaking process.
A movement founded on organic farming, artisanship, and minimalism in the cellar, it is a complex world of colourful, modern labels and surprising blends. It has entrenched itself in the bistros and bars of cities globally.
