Now that Autumn has definitely arrived, we thought it time to put together a selection of natural wines fit for the season. Rich, comforting, warming, aromatic, sensual: these are the bottles we reach for at this time of year.

Rustic, unpolished, unfiltered fizz. Salinity, zesty lemons & savoury depth. One of the first 'col fondo' wines we tried way back when and has been a firm favourite here at Wayward ever since. A big recommendation!

For many, Lambrusco is misunderstood - fortunately Donati is doing things the old-fashioned way. An invigorating wine; bone-dry with tart forest fruits and a bracing acidity that makes it the perfect foil for rich Emila-style dishes. Find out more.
