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.
Bodegas Krontiras
A Greek couple traded the Aegean for the Andes, building one of Argentina's first biodynamic estates and a Malbec made with zero added sulfur.
Fredi Torres
A Galician-Swiss DJ turned winemaker, Fredi Torres farms schist terraces across four corners of Catalonia, working organically and with biodynamic principles to make bright, low-alcohol expressions of Priorat and beyond.
Vigneti Vallorani
Fifth-generation family estate in southern Le Marche farming 8 certified-organic hectares of Sangiovese, Montepulciano, and Pecorino near the Adriatic coast since 1905.
Colline de l'Hirondelle
A Franco-American couple makes organic Corbieres wines on a bird-refuge hillside in the Aude, including a Grenache-Mourvedre bottled with no added sulfites.
Bodega Frontio
A former Maersk Oil executive left Denmark to revive century-old Juan García vines on granite at Fermoselle, in Spain's remote DO Arribes on the Portuguese border.
Vini Viti Vinci
Paris wine-bar veteran who moved to northern Burgundy to ferment overlooked appellations with zero inputs and unflinching natural conviction.
Las Jaras
Winemaker Joel Burt and actor-director Eric Wareheim founded Las Jaras in 2017, sourcing from organic and sustainably farmed old-vine sites across Mendocino, Sonoma and Oregon to produce low-intervention California wines that are food-friendly, lower-alcohol and genuinely fun.
Cascina degli Ulivi
The Piedmont farm where the late Stefano Bellotti turned a single hectare into one of Italy's defining biodynamic estates, now carried on by his daughter Ilaria.
Margins
Megan Bell founded Margins in 2016 to spotlight California's overlooked grape varieties and marginal wine regions, building one of the state's most distinctive low-intervention portfolios before closing in 2026.
Heinrich
From a single hectare in 1990 to roughly 90 spread across Lake Neusiedl, Gernot and Heike Heinrich turned Burgenland into proof that Austrian reds and Demeter farming belong together.
Radikon – Stanko's Legacy
Radikon is a founding name of the orange-wine renaissance, based in Oslavia in Friuli's Collio. The late Stanko Radikon began long skin-contact maceration of his Ribolla in the early 1990s to recapture terroir and character, and his son Saša now continues the legacy.
Bodegas Cueva
From an 18th-century cellar in Utiel-Requena, Mariano Taberner makes organic, minimally handled wines, including ancestral-method sparklers from native Tardana and Bobal.
