Our philosophy
Natural wine — what is it, really?
Natural wine is wine the way it has been made for thousands of years — from grapes, and nothing else.
No added sulphites, no commercial yeasts, no colourings or flavourings. The winemaker works with what nature provides and guides the process with as little intervention as possible.
The result? Wines with character. Alive, expressive and full of terroir. Every bottle tells the story of the soil, the climate and the hand of the maker.
Why natural wine?
Four reasons why we choose wines made with minimal intervention.
Pure & honest
None of our wines contain added chemicals. What you taste is grape — not a laboratory.
Small producers
Our winemakers are all independent and work on a small scale. Some grow their own grapes, others work as négociants with fruit from organic or biodynamic growers they know personally.
Better for the soil
Natural winemaking goes hand in hand with organic and biodynamic farming. Healthy soils mean healthy wines.
Expressive wines
Natural wines are livelier and more expressive than conventional wines — full of character, with flavours you don't forget.
Our selection
Wines that genuinely move us
Each season we travel through France, Italy, Spain and Slovakia looking for wines that surprise us. We taste, we talk to the makers, we visit the vineyards. Only the bottles that truly move us make it home.
Natural wine vs conventional wine
Five ways natural wine is fundamentally different from industrial wine.
Natural wine
Organically or biodynamically grown
Conventional wine
Often with synthetic pesticides and herbicides
Natural wine
Spontaneous fermentation with wild yeasts
Conventional wine
Cultured yeasts for predictable flavour
Natural wine
No additions, only grape
Conventional wine
Up to hundreds of permitted additives
Natural wine
Unfiltered, sometimes cloudy as a result
Conventional wine
Filtered, sometimes with animal products like egg white or isinglass
Natural wine
None or very low dosage
Conventional wine
High doses, often needed for stability
Natural wine vs organic wine
Both come down to caring for the vineyard — but the real difference is in the cellar.
Natural wine
Goes one step further than organic. The whole point is to intervene as little as possible, both in the cellar and in the vineyard.
- Spontaneous fermentation with wild yeasts
- No or minimal additions (such as sulphites)
- No filtration or fining
- Lively, sometimes cloudy, often singular
Organic wine
Focuses mainly on how the grapes are grown. In the cellar there's more freedom: winemakers can still use certain additions and techniques to keep the wine stable and consistent.
- No synthetic pesticides or herbicides
- Strict sustainability rules
- Cellar additions allowed under conditions
- More stable, more uniform results
