Why Natural Wine?
- Thanks to low-intervention growing and processing techniques, these wines beautifully express the landscapes in which they’re grown—so each sip conveys the taste, aroma, and spirit of some of the best places on earth
- Grapes are grown with regenerative practices that restore rather than deplete local ecosystems
- No herbicides or pesticides: On some farms, sheep graze down the weeds; on others, waterfowl handle pest control and provide fertilizer
- Native plants grow between rows to prevent erosion, draw down carbon and improve soil health
- Fermentation, aging and bottling:
- No filtration
- Minimal or no added sulfites
- No animal-based clarifying agents; our wine is vegan
- Naturally occurring, indigenous yeasts—rather than lab-grown varieties—drive fermentation
- Flavors are wild, intense, unconventional

About the Producer
The Vineyard
- Wild Arc is a small family farm in New York’s Hudson Valley
- Established on an abandoned dairy farm
- All grapes are grown using regenerative techniques that restore the land
- Their vines thrive thanks to inter-row crops that include native grasses and wildflowers, which also provide critical habitat for pollinators
- Flocks of ducks, chickens, and geese control pests while also fertilizing the vines
The Winemakers
- Todd Cavallo and Crystal Cornish, founders of Wild Arc, see viticulture as a family affair; their young children play among the vines in summer and “help” during autumn’s harvest
- Only responsibly sourced oak casks are used during aging
- No filtration is used during processing
- No sulfites are added at bottling
