Sommelier Wine of the Season Pick: Natural Wines

What is “natural wine” according to a sommelier?

It’s a hands off approach to wine making, simply letting the grape juice make wine as it naturally would with zero additives and no manipulation. It starts in the vineyard, where the vineyard manager does not use any synthetic materials to treat concerns such as pests, mold, or mildew, but instead uses natural ingredients or biodynamic methods of farming.

Once the grapes are harvested and the wine making process has begun, nothing additional is added. No sugar, no acid,no sulfites. Once the wine is made, it’s aged in a naturally occurring material such as an oak barrel or clay amphora.

Natural wines are ones that are made in a way to allow the grapes speak to who they truly are without the manipulation of man.
