Natural wine

Natural wine: Nothing in, nothing out.

"Fermented grape juice: grapes, grapes and more grapes, and the result is wine".

For us means Natural wine: as natural as possible. In other words, letting the wine go its own way, from the viticulture to the finished wine in the bottle. This creates the lively and exciting taste of natural wines that differs from conventional wines. So get involved and you will be surprised, I promise! :-)

We have defined the following natural wine principles for ourselves:

  1. Biodynamic work in the vineyard 
  2. Spontaneous fermentation without the addition of cultivated yeast
  3. Unfined, without the addition of "fining agents" (you wouldn't believe what you can do with conventional wine - here we write something extra about it)
  4. Bottled unfiltered - only naturally clarified
  5. Minimal sulfuruse up to max.25mg / l

For the term Natural wine, also called RAW Wine, there are no set rules yet. However, most winegrowers agree that organic viticulture precedes the term natural wine. With organic cultivation, the focus is on healthy grapes, which requires extensive care of the vineyard. What is of course also important for spontaneous fermentation are intact and healthy cultures on the vineyard and in the grapes. At first it sounds simple and self-explanatory: “Read the grapes and let them ferment”. But if you start to take a closer look at the production steps, it quickly becomes apparent that natural wine in its purest form is almost a miracle. A great balancing act between life in the vineyard, in the cellar and in the bottle.
