Biodynamic Wine
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Biodynamic wine is produced across regions from Austria's Burgenland to the Loire Valley using farming principles that treat the vineyard as a self-sustaining ecosystem, prohibiting synthetic inputs and scheduling work by lunar cycles. Meinklang, whose certified biodynamic estate in Burgenland appears across multiple styles here - from the lightly sparkling Frizzante Rose Prosa to the skin-contact Mulatschak - demonstrates how one farm can express radically different textural registers through minimal intervention. Domaine Vacheron brings the same philosophy to Sancerre's Sauvignon Blanc, producing tightly mineral whites from Loire chalk. Paolo Bea's Montefalco Sagrantino Pagliaro represents the category's most structured and age-demanding end, while Chateau la Canorgue's Luberon Rouge offers a more approachable Rhone-influenced counterpoint.
