If you answered “yes” (the only acceptable answer!), then Nat Diego is a three day festival for you!

On Friday, August 4th, through Sunday, August 6th, various locations throughout San Diego will be packed with parties, winemakers, importers and advocates of Natural wine.

What is natural wine, you say? Why it’s wine made by people who are breaking the status-quo of industrialized winemaking and rediscovering a heritage in which farming and winemaking are intimately linked.

Natural wine is made without additives or chemicals. It is made by hand and farmed responsibly.

It is wine that displays a sense of place and it is wine that tastes great!

This year’s theme is “Fermentation Simply,” so expect to go home knowing little bit about Natural Fermentation (insert nerdy glasses here). 😉
