Natural wines are very trendy right now and have been steadily growing in popularity in recent years, however, rather than jumping on the bandwagon, I chose to help drive it... to only stock organically farmed wines (as the bare minimum standard), not as it's trendy, but because it is the right thing to do.

As many of the wines as possible that I stock are natural, i.e. unfiltered, unfined, and made using naturally occurring yeasts with minimal intervention in the vineyards and/or the winery, including no added sulphur wherever possible. By definition, they are generally also produced using small-scale farming practices. The reason I chose to only stock natural wines, that is to say, wines made with absolute respect for the earth, specifically the soil system, is that this is one way to reduce the strain on the earth and its resources. Regenerative farming also helps to fix carbon in the soil, generally, this method means a smaller scale production, which in turn, increases the biodiversity of the area and gives a more accurate representation of the wines' terroir.
