Wine, Made Easy

You don't need to know much about wine. Just know what you like: light or full, clean or funky, still or bubbly. We'll do the rest.

Words you'll hear

Natural wine

Grapes, fermented. Nothing added, nothing taken away.

Organic

Grown without synthetic sprays.

Biodynamic

Organic, plus farming by the moon calendar. Sounds trippy. Works.

Orange wine

White grapes left on their skins. More texture, more grip.

Pet-nat

Easy, cloudy bubbles bottled before fermentation finishes.

Chillable red

A light red that tastes better cold.

Tannin

The drying feeling on your gums. Big in big reds.

Acid

The mouth-watering part. It makes wine taste fresh.

Funky

Wild, earthy, a little barnyard. In a good way.

Sulfites

A preservative. A little is fine. We avoid wines that use a lot.

How cold?

  • Bubbles and whites: fridge cold.
  • Orange wine and chillable reds: 20 minutes in the fridge.
  • Big reds: cool room temp.
