Manifesto for Natural Wine – A short, sharp and visionary text advocating for natural wine as a symbol of hope, integrity and joyful resistance in the world of agriculture and consumption.
In just 23 pages, Antonin Iommi-Amunategui dismantles the assumptions of industrial winemaking and paints a compelling picture of a new model: natural wine, which is both delicious and philosophical, and which, despite lacking official recognition, continues to conquer palates and minds alike.
For the author, natural wine is more than a drink – it is the most accomplished realization of an ethical utopia. It is born from living soil, cultivated without synthetic chemicals, and fermented without additives. It’s bottled without trickery, sold through alternative networks, and enjoyed by informed, responsible consumers.
This essay celebrates a “counter-agriculture”, a kind of gentle revolt that bypasses mass-market logic and instead emphasizes small-scale, transparent and craft-based production. Every bottle is a statement: of care for the earth, respect for the producer, and trust in the intelligence of the drinker.
More than a defense of natural wine, this manifesto is a call to arms for all forms of ethical, conscious production – in farming, in trade, and in life.
A must-read for anyone interested in wine with soul, for curious drinkers and for those who seek to make more meaningful choices.
