This is based on an old agreement between the wine lobby and the US government. As one of the only major food groups without a content label, consumers are left in the dark about what is in their wine.
Since there are 76 legal additives approved for use in winemaking, wine is usually an industrialized, sterilized shelf product. Not a natural one.
Dry Farm Wines is on a mission to change winemaking practices.
They curate only the highest quality natural wines from small family farms that meet their strict standard of purity. Unlike today's commercialized and processed wines, this is real wine. Nothing added, nothing removed.
Pure. Artisanal. And delicious.
All of Dry Farm Wines are independently lab tested to ensure the highest quality and purest wines.
Dry Farm Wines all share natural farming and traditional winemaking practices, including:
- Natural, organic, or Biodynamic viticulture/farming
- Dry farming, no use of irrigation
- Older growth vines, generally 35-100 years
- Handcrafted/Small Batch
- Minimal intervention in the vinification and aging
- Wild native yeast in fermentation
- No commercial yeast for flavor alteration
- No or minimal filtering/fining
- No or minimal use of new oak
- No or minimal addition of SO2 (sulfites)
- No chaptalization (adding sugar to the grape must in fermentation)
- No chemical additives for aroma, color, flavor or texture enhancement
“It’s not just the number of drinks you have that matters; it’s also the amount of alcohol in each drink. A glass of 11% alcohol wine is very different from a glass of 16% alcohol wine. Similarly, taking a shot of liquor and having 40% alcohol by volume in your system immediately is not the same as sipping and savoring a drink, the latter giving your liver time to process the alcohol without overwhelming it.
