Natural wine is on everyone's lips today. Known for its free, alive, unpretentious, it challenges norms, fascinates as much as it divides. In Natural wine beyond trends, , Sophie Brissaud and Pierre Guigui offer an exploration as lucid as it is committed to this wine movement in full effervescence.
For several years, the consumption habits are turning away from so-called "conventional" wines—often standardized and dominated by rigid appellations—and are turning towards wines more authentic, , less interventionist, , more expressive. Between pure juice wine and jaja deviant, , vinegar or ambrosia, the natural wine embodies all the contradictions of our time.
Authors take us behind the scenes of this oenological revolution. They interview the viticultural practices, winemaking methods, the presence or absence of sulfites, the stakes of conservation and of consumption. Can natural wine be good without being dogmatic? Where does craftsmanship end and posturing begin ?
Faced with a cacophony of labels – organic, biodynamic, natural, without additives, barely filtered or not filtered at all – the consumer struggles to navigate. This book provides clear keys to understanding, with an educational approach and without judgment. It also offers a selection of more than 100 cuvées to guide readers in their sensory exploration.
An essential book for anyone who wishes to deepen their wine culture, better understand the current issues in viticulture, and savor with informed understanding.
