WINE SCHOOL: What is Natural Wine Anyway

  • Small Hours 2201 Northeast 2nd Street Minneapolis, MN, 55418 United States (map)

Wine School continues this month with What is Natural Wine Anyway? It’s a question we hear almost daily, in one form or another. And it’s a fair one, because whether it shows up as orange wine, pét-nat, something unfiltered, or just a little stylistically “funky,” the definition is slippery at best. Some would argue it doesn’t really exist at all.

We think of wine as something lasting, shaped by people and place over thousands of years, not defined by a single movement or moment. So yes, this month’s Wine School is about natural wine. But really, it’s just about wine: how it’s made, why it’s made that way, and the decisions, practical, ethical, and creative, that shape it. Because wine, for all its connection to nature, is never fully “natural.” It’s always touched by people, by intention, and at its best, often by ambition.

This class includes a flight of 4 wines and snacks from our kitchen. We lean into a conversational tone though the class has been described as “information-packed”.
