Sulfite / sulfur / SO2

Sulphite is a chemical additive that helps stabilize wine.

Why does natural wine still have sulfites without adding sulfur (SO2)?

Grapes and vines naturally contain sulphites. It's a bit absurd, but almost every wine must have the addition "contains sulphites" noted on the bottle. Even if no sulfite or at least only extremely small amounts were added.

Almost all of our winemakers work with very little or no sulfur during bottling. We think you can taste it! In our experience, the hangover the next day is noticeably less :)

Here is an overview of the sulfite limit values for conventional, organic and biodynamic wines.
