What are the differences between organic, biodynamic, and natural wine
What is an organic wine?
An organic wine is first and foremost a wine made from grapes grown without chemical pesticides, herbicides, or synthetic fertilizers. The specifications also require environmentally friendly practices both in the vineyard and in the cellar. Winemakers favor natural treatments and limit additives to let nature express itself as much as possible.
What is a biodynamic wine?
Biodynamics go even further than organic! Inspired by the principles of Rudolf Steiner, this approach sees the vineyard as a living organism, connected with its environment and lunar cycles. Winemakers use preparations made from plants, minerals, and compost to energize the soil and strengthen the natural defenses of the vines. The result: vibrant wines, full of energy and balance.
What is a natural wine?
Natural wine is the philosophy of “nothing or almost nothing.” The grapes come from organic or biodynamic farming, are harvested by hand, and vinified without additives, with minimal intervention. No industrial yeasts, no drastic filtration... just fermented grape juice in all its purity.
Sulfur or no sulfur?
Sulfur (or sulfites) is used to stabilize the wine, but its use is strictly regulated in organic and biodynamic wines. In natural wines, it is often absent or used in very small amounts, just before bottling. But be careful: a natural wine is not necessarily organic, even if it often is. What matters is the winemaker's approach and their respect for life — from vine to glass.
