Natural wines: authenticity in a glass
Natural wines represent a production philosophy that focuses on total respect for nature and the authenticity of territorial expression. These wines are born from the belief that only by protecting biodiversity in the vineyard can the true essence of wine be achieved.
The natural approach goes beyond organic or biodynamic certifications, proposing an idea of wine as a faithful reflection of its territory. Each bottle tells a unique story, the result of the unrepeatable combination of soil, climate, grape variety, and the winemaker's sensitivity.
From the vineyard to the cellar: minimal intervention and maximum expression
The philosophy of natural wine is based on fundamental principles shared by all producers: no chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar, without additives or technical corrections.
Manual harvesting of the grapes, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and the absence or very limited use of sulfites are essential characteristics. Natural wines can have surprising, sometimes unusual, but always authentic and lively organoleptic profiles.
Producers such as Dettori, Laherte Frères, Giacomo Fenocchio and many artisans in our selection interpret this philosophy with extraordinary results, offering wines that honestly reflect their origins.
A universe of styles and interpretations
The category of natural wines encompasses an incredible variety of styles, from bottle-fermented wines to orange wines, from wines without added sulfites to those produced in amphorae according to ancient traditions.
What these different expressions have in common is the search for authenticity and respect for nature, combined with the desire to offer an alternative to standardization. Each bottle represents a challenge and an act of courage on the part of the producer. Choosing a natural wine means embracing a different approach to the world of wine, favoring uniqueness over consistency, originality over predictability, and craftsmanship over industrial standardization. It is a fascinating sensory journey through wines that truly have a soul.
