Spirit
Natural wine is an umbrella term for producers who are defined more by what they leave out of their processes at many different points, than by what they put in. Natural wine is the physical manifestation of the world view of some producers, whereas for others it is a reaction against the excesses of 20th Century chemical farming and additive based winemaking. Natural wine producers are interested in the purity of their work rather than in the physical perfection of the result.

Famous quotes containing the word spirit:
“My father’s spirit in arms! All is not well.
I doubt some foul play. Would the night were come!
Till then sit still, my soul. Foul deeds will rise,
Though all the earth o’erwhelm them, to men’s eyes.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The Spirit of Place [does not] exert its full influence upon a newcomer until the old inhabitant is dead or absorbed. So America.... The moment the last nuclei of Red [Indian] life break up in America, then the white men will have to reckon with the full force of the demon of the continent.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“O thou invisible spirit of wine, if thou hast no name to be known by, let us call thee devil!”
