Blind Tasting: Natural Wines
Summary:
What is a 'natural wine' anyway? In the latest in our series of blind tasting videos, Justin is once again joined by Chris Martin MW, to discuss all things natural. They taste three outstanding low-intervention wines and talk about how you might recognise the signatures of naturalness, how to assess quality and finding the line between funk and faulty.
We'd love to hear your thoughts about natural wine, so please start a discussion in the comments!
Details of the wines tasted can be downloaded in the accompanying pdf.
