Bio- & Naturwein

In harmony with nature: organic and natural wines stand for sustainable viticulture – and a style that brings the terroir into the glass as faithfully as possible.

Organic wine: certified farming

For organic wines, synthetic chemical pesticides and fertilisers are avoided in the vineyard. Instead, cover crops, beneficial insects and gentle care are used. Certifications such as EU organic or Demeter (biodynamic) guarantee clear rules.

Natural wine: minimal intervention

Natural wine goes further: in the cellar too, intervention is kept to a minimum – spontaneous fermentation with wild yeasts, little or no sulphur, no fining. The result is living, sometimes idiosyncratic wines with marked character.

Our organic recommendations

• Vuala Nero d'Avola Bio – an organically grown Sicilian – juicy and spicy.
• Demuerte Cava Brut – a Spanish organic cava with fine bubbles.
• Tramari Rosé di Primitivo – a fruity rosé from sustainable farming.

Organic at the table

Organic and natural wines suit honest, regional cooking as well as vegetables and vegetarian dishes. Their liveliness makes them exciting companions – especially for those seeking something different.

What to look out for

Look for organic certifications on the label. Natural wines can be slightly cloudy and show unusual aromas – that is intended. Serve them rather cool and give them some air to reveal their character.
