Intro to 'Natural Wine' with Sarah Horvitz

The term 'natural wine' is a bit of a wide open category, with few actual rules and no governing authority. Generally speaking though, it refers to producers who: adhere closer to organic, biodynamic, and/or regenerative farming practices; employ minimal manipulation during the winemaking process; generally do not fine or filter their wines; and use minimal to no SO2 during the winemaking process or at bottling. These vague parameters nonetheless distinguish these producers and, indeed, the wines they make in ways that are as varied as the places where they occur. 

This week, we are happy to invite Sarah Horvitz of Plant Wines to host our Feature Tasting on Wednesday, September 23 from 4-6 pm. She will shed some light on this sometimes confusing category and taste through a lineup that proves that paying a lot of attention to growing your grapes in the right way means that you naturally have the best grapes to make the best wine possible. 

This tasting is $10, and bottles on the bar are 10% off during the tasting. We look forward to you joining us to explore a lot of very old practices that are becoming new again!
