NATURAL WINE

What Natural Wine Isn’t:


  • It's not a new fad; it has ancient roots.
  • It's not confined to a specific style or category.
  • It's not solely defined by its appearance or aroma.
  • It's not dictated by sulfur levels or limited to Pét-Nat wines.

What Natural Wine Is:


  • It is responsibly made with minimal intervention.
  • It is a commitment to organic and biodynamic farming practices.
  • It is reflective of terroir – a taste of the place where it originated.
  • It is an exploration of biodiversity and soil restoration.

The Good News about Natural Wine:


All of the wines at Proof are on the natural spectrum.  Meaning, all of our wines are responsibly-made and have been fully vetted before they hit the shelves. We have tasted 99% of the wines in our shop. We look at the farming techniques, fermentation and aging processes for each and every producer we work with.  Many times, we are supporting the small, family-owned wineries, making less than 1500 cases a year.
