Natural Wine For Spring

Colour – Sparkling

Now that Summer is upon us, despite what feels like endless rain, we thought it time to put together a selection of natural wines fit for the Season. Light, bright, fresh, aromatic, heady and sensual: these are the bottles we reach for at this time of year.

Cà de Noci
Sottobosco 2022

We've often likened this incredible Lambrusco-style sparkling red to a liquid summer pudding; there is the tart attack of forest fruits, but offset by a creamy, lactic element. As you'd hope from this style, the tannins grip keenly and there is an iron-y, sanguine quality to the dark wine. Find out more.

  • Region Quattro Castella, Emilia-Romagna, Italy
  • Grapes Lambrusco di Montericco, Malbo Gentile, Lambrusco Grasparossa & Sgavetta
  • Vineyard Organic

Fabio Ferracane
Foddreé 2023

An abundance of tangy sherbet lemon pithiness and chalky minerals to quench the thirst, with a balanced brioch-y undertone from the very present lees sediment. The frothy, finely-moussed bubbles and low finished alcohol make this the perfect aperitivo wine, particularly for those who embrace the cloudiness. Find out more.

  • Region Marsala, Sicily, Italy
  • Grapes Catarratto
  • Vineyard Organic
  • Cellar Fermented with native yeasts, unfiltered & unfined, no additional sulphites
£25.75

Camillo Donati
Malvasia Secco 2023

Rustic, hazy sparkling orange wine, the Malvasia leans to apricot marmalade, a herbal note adding to the intrigue. A failsafe wine we turn to again and again! Find out more.

  • Region Arola, Emilia-Romagna, Italy
  • Grapes Malvasia di Candia
  • Vineyard Organic & Biodynamic
  • Cellar Fermented with native yeasts, unfiltered & unfined, minimal additional sulphites

Antonio Gismondi
È Festa 2022

A fine-beaded frizzante that pours a hazy gold in the glass, this very much takes the fleshy, textural peachiness of the varietal and sets it against the saltiness of both the lees contact and the limestone rock of the vineyard soils. Find out more.

  • Region Cerreto Sannita, Campania, Italy
  • Grapes Falanghina
  • Vineyard Biodynamic
  • Cellar Fermented with native yeasts, unfiltered & unfined, no additional sulphites
