Presentation:

Isabelle Legeron campaigns for natural wine around the world and is recognized as an authority on the subject by the New York Times. She runs the hugely successful RAW wine fairs in London, Berlin, New York, Los Angeles and Montreal. In Natural Wine, Isabelle reveals why the finest and most authentic wines are those that are produced naturally. Although they are not currently the subject of an official definition, natural wines are made from grapes from sustainable agriculture and organic (or biodynamic) farming, without removing or adding anything during the vinification, with the exception of a hint of sulphites. This is good old grape juice fermented into wine, as nature intended.

If you care about what goes into your glass, want to experience unique flavors, or want to support small producers, you need to know more about natural wine and where to find it. Natural Wine explains the processes involved, introduces you to some of the producers, and suggests over 140 of the best wines to try. This third edition has been completely updated, with more recommendations for orange wines and bubbles, and a section on coferments.
