Natural Wine Producers: Working With Nature
Portraits and interviews with the world's finest natural wine producers — farmers and winemakers who work in harmony with terroir, minimal intervention, and a deep respect for the land.
Alex Hudon
A former Quebec City sommelier who crossed the Atlantic and now bottles tiny cuvees from his own Cotes de la Charite vines and organic Touraine fruit alike.
Les Tetes
Four Loire Valley friends launched Les Tètes in 2011 to make organic, low-intervention wines in Touraine that are as fun to share as they are easy to drink.
Barbara Lebled
Trained alongside her father Laurent, Barbara Lebled launched her own Touraine project in 2019, working organically across the central Loire's full grape palette.
Le Sot de l'Ange
Quentin Bourse farms 12 biodynamic hectares in Azay-le-Rideau with an intensity that belies his modest output, coaxing Chenin Blanc, Grolleau, and Gamay from clay-silica soils into some of the Loire's most honest and compelling natural wines.
Domaine Tardieux-Gal
A certified-organic Touraine estate in Theseco-farmed since 2021 by Simon Tardieux and Jerome Gal under the principles of peasant agriculture.
Jean-Francois Mereau
A fourth-generation Touraine vigneron working the Cher valley in chalk, flint, and clay, ageing organic Loire wines in oak, concrete egg, and amphora.
