Wine production: How natural wine is made

How is wine actually made? And what is the difference between industrially produced wines and natural wines? If you look at wine production like cooking, the harvest and the working methods in the vineyard are like your ingredients. The more precisely and carefully you work, the higher the quality of the grapes and the wine produced. It is not without reason that they say that good wines are made in the vineyard. However, in addition to meticulous manual work in the vineyard, it takes even more finesse. Here you can find out everything about making natural wines.

Handlese bei Peter Jakob Kühn im Rheingau

Peter Bernhard Kühn at the Riesling harvest in the Rheingau, Germany

To the point:

Natural wine is made with careful hand harvesting, spontaneous fermentation with its own yeasts, without additives and uncompromising maturation until the wine stabilizes on its own.
