Style – Clean + Mineral

Here at Wayward our large selection of natural red wine covers a broad dynamic range; from the most weightless, translucent expressions of the Jura, or juicy, perfumed Gamay from Beaujolais, through to more structured, robust examples from warmer, more Mediterranean climes, you’ll find them all listed here.

Reds to keep you warm in the winter and, yes, reds that you can throw into the ice bucket. From healthy, unique vineyard parcels managed with organic and biodynamic farming, the natural wine approach can yield wildly varying results in the cellar; we deal in classical appellation all the way through to the wild, raw outer limits.

Noëlla Morantin
Momu 2020

Aromatically this is a textbook example of the grape; plush, brightly-toned notes of red berries, charred capsicum and ground coffee are vibrant and upfront. On the palate the wine is glossy, with deep, sumptuous fruit and gentle bitters leading into detailed granular tannins and a stony, mineral backbone. Find out more.

Patrick Bouju
Lulu 2022

Elisa Guerin
'Les Thorins' Moulin-à-Vent 2022

The darker, more brooding and structured side of Elisa's two Moulin-à-Vent cuvées; this is the only of her wines that sees any time in barrel. Robust and ageworthy, with an iron-rich mineral streak imparted by the gorrha soils that define this single 1.5-hectare plot. Find out more.

Frédéric Cossard

La Grange Du Nord
Bords de Scene 2021

Stunning blend of mainly Grenache with 10% Syrah. From the off, the colour in the glass pulls you in - a brick-tinged sunset ruby, crystalline and inviting. Perhaps the ultimate display of Fred's lightness of touch, the wine blends a lifted, complex perfume, with a confounding depth of structure that belies its appearance. Find out more.

Mikaël Bouges
Les Couilles d'Anes 2021

A serious wine with a silly name - Couilles d'Anes translates as 'donkey balls', a colloquial term coined by the local vigneron to describe the unusual black stones that can be found dotting the vineyard soils in certain locations. A delightfully aromatic vintage, bright cherry and bramble fruits meld with a violet perfume in the glass. Find out more.

Marzagana Elementales
Higa 2022

Higa is all salt on the Atlantic sea breeze and scorched charcoal minerality, making for a more savoury, saline expression. The delicate tannins stand like a sort of intricate, skeletal framework around the wine, where earthy elements meld with secondary notes from the time in barrel, the fruit feeling less to the fore.

Domaine Fauvettes
De l'Aube à l'Aube Bourgogne 2022

A warmer year has produced a wine that is a little darker and deeper than previous vintages, where firm tannins frame woodsy notes of berries, earth and spice. Find out more.

Hubert & Heidi Hausherr
Rouge Venise 2022

Fantastically pure single-vineyard Pinot Noir, with a glassy sort of tension that binds pretty red fruits, perfume and spice. Find out more.

Marzagana Elementales
Cielo y Tierra 2022

A rare planting makes for a unique expression of Syrah, it's potential to display dark, charry fruit here feels enhanced with the volcanic influence. A wide-open perfume floats above a slick, glossy body that is dense with juicy black olives and blackcurrant. Less granular in texture than the other wines using indigenous grapes, it shimmers long into the profoundly mineral finish. Find out more.

Domaine des Trouillères
Bouche à Z'Oreille 2022

Pouring translucent ruby in the glass, at first the wine jumps at you with lots of tart red fruits before layers of salt, smoke and minerality begin to emerge. Find out more.
