That Natty Show!
Episode Notes Episode 10 – That Natty Show Natural wine has become all the rage with those in the know. Pete and VinoMike start to tackle this nebulous wine category in this episode. The featured wine this show is: 2018 Occhipinti “SP68” Rosso . If you have never tried a wine from Occhipinti, you are missing out! What is natural wine? What about sustainable, organic, and biodynamic? They get into how difficult it is to define natural wine and why that is an issue for both wine buyers and consumers. Pete rips into biodynamic. Honestly, he’s kind of a jerk about it. But, hey, they said they would be honest. Hopefully, you learn a little about this category and are ready to try some new wines. The article VinoMike mentions about sulfites and wine can be found here . It is an interesting read. By the end, clearly guys will need to revisit this topic soon!
