Low Added Sulfites

These wines are made with minimal addition of sulfur during the winemaking process and/or bottling. Sulfur is an organic compound, so organic wines can include sulfur - and small amounts of sulfur can do a great job of stabilizing and preserving wine. These winemakers make every effort to use only what is needed, which of course minimizes (if not eliminates altogether) the sulfite-related ill effects some people experience when drinking large-production wine.

A lovely Riesling made by Von Buhl, one of the most respected wineries in Germany for over 200 years. The "medium dry" on the label is a misleading translation, as this wine is essentially dry. It's also delicious! Suggestions of sweet corn, petrol, and citrus zest on the nose are followed by a subtly oily-textured, expansive, yet refreshingly bright palate that will have you smacking your lips.

Bratwurst, veal, pork chops with sauerkraut

BioVio is the kind of winery that you get to know about only if you hang out with the Ligurian locals- nearly all of the tiny production is poured into their glasses to be enjoyed. This is a fascinating wine, with notes of basil and pine nuts on the nose (not surprisingly, Liguria is also the home of pesto). Flavors of white peach and almond follow, with a creamy texture and plenty of acidity to back it up. And for you linguists, Pigato's name comes from the reddish brown spots that form on the (certified organic) grapes when ripe. Winemaking Details: Low SO2 Added

Goes with: 
Shell fish, linguine with clams, turkey, creamy cheeses

Olivier Cousin is one of our favorite Loire vignerons, with a gentle disposition and salt n' pepper beard. Cousin's horse, Joker, plows the vineyards. His wines are the epitome of natural. Grolleau is one of those grapes that near died of extinction until it was resurrected by a handful of natural winemakers in the Loire, Cousin included. Shows barnyard funk, supple crushed red fruit and minerals. Winemaking Details: Unfiltered, Unfined, Vegan, Low SO2 Added, Wild Yeast Fermentation

Check out the crushed purple hue and pretty pink froth on this dry fizzy red. Venturini-Baldini owns up to being an artisan Lambrusco with powdery tannins, bright acidity and some vibrant brambly character. It hits all the right buttons, opposed to the mass-produced, icky sweet stuff we used to see on the US market. They also produce balsamic vinegar, walnuts, honey and grappa: the stuff of life.

Goes with: 
A hunk of parmesan, salumi or pizza
