description: Do you know whats in your wine?Wine-making has become ever-more unnatural from the use of blanket crop-spraying in vineyards to the over-use of sulfites but finally someone is doing something about it. Isabelle Legeron MW is leading the campaign for natural wine  wine made as nature intended. There is no official description of natural wine but a rough definition is that it is made from grapes that are farmed organically or biodynamically and harvested manually and that the wine should ideally be made without adding or removing anything during the vinification process. It is basically good old-fashioned grape juice fermented into wine just as nature intended. Isabelle is a crusader for the natural wine she has her own show on the Travel Channel organizes a hugely successful annual natural wine festival (RAW) and acts as adviser to several leading restaurants. Just as the craft beer movement has taken off across the globe the demand for natural wine is growing and will continue to do so.
