Natural wine

Natural wine – Real, vibrant and unfiltered wine experience

Natural wine is wine in its purest and most unadulterated form – made with minimal intervention, without additives and often with spontaneous fermentation . It is wine where the grape, terroir and winemaker are allowed to speak freely. At dhwines.dk we have selected a carefully curated range of natural wines from small producers who work organically, biodynamically and artisanally .

What is natural wine?

There is no official definition – but natural wine is typically distinguished by:

• Organically or biodynamically grown grapes
• No or very low amount of added sulfur
• No added enzymes, yeast or fining agents
• Unfiltered and cloudy wine – with live microflora

The result is wines with personality, freshness and often natural frizzante, funk or complexity .

Styles and flavor profile

• Natural white wine: Light, citrus-driven or skin-fermented orange wines
• Red natural wine: Fruit-driven, lightly spicy, low tannin – but can also be dark and rustic
• Pet-Nat (pétillant naturel): Lightly bubbly natural wine – spontaneously fermented in the bottle

Why choose natural wine?

• Honest and unmanipulated wine
• Exciting tasting experiences – every bottle is unique
• Sustainable and environmentally friendly
• Good match for modern, green food and fermented dishes

Food and natural wine

Most natural wines are extremely food-friendly and flexible . Try them for:

• Vegetable dishes, fermented vegetables, mushrooms
• Charcuterie, cheeses, tapas, natural bread
• Light meat – e.g. chicken, pork, veal, lamb
• Vegan dishes with herbs, acid and umami

Frequently Asked Questions

What does natural wine taste like?

It varies a lot! Some are clean and fruit-driven – others are funky, wild and oxidative. That's the charm – the vibrant expression and the honest style .
