VINEYARD HEALTH
Cultivation of the wine grapes. Almost all wines at NOTWASTED implement organic, biodynamic or regenerative vineyard practices.
-
SKIN CONTACT
The skins of the grapes can form part of the fermentation process. Unlike conventional white wine, natural winemakers will often leave skins of the grapes for part (or all) of the fermentation, the result is a cloudy and tannin filled wine.
-
FILTERING
The filtering of the wine to remove particles post fermentation. Filtering particles may be aesthetically pleasing, but is often viewed as ‘unnatural’ and not filtering is said to create a more unique wine.
-
FINING
Fining wines uses an agent (often gelatin or bentonite) to attract miniscule solids and join them together. Again this is seen as ‘unnatural’.
-
SULPHUR
The amount of sulfur added to the wine. The affect of suplphites in wine on the human body is one of the most debated and researched parts of the winemaking process. Conventional wines often present up to 300mg per litre of wine.
-
YEAST
The type of yeast used. Imported or wild. Yeast is crucial to break down grape sugars into alcohol. Wild yeast, relies on it naturally occuring as part of the fruit harvested. Although harder to execute, it’s often part of a natural winemaker’s process.

About the maker
Since 2013, Anders has been making the most pure and original wines from 'only grapes', buying fruit from esteemed winemakers around the area.
Once a chef and once a sommelier in some of the best restaurants around Denmark like Noma, he then progressed to making wine and working alongside renowned winemakers in the Jura like Jean-Marc Brignot. His family and him have now moved to the stunning area of Ardèche, where the soils are a perfect mix of clay and limestone and the vineyards are full of life, having been tended organically for decades. Anders takes a unique, logical and practical approach to winemaking. He doesn't move into a year knowing what he wants to make in mind, rather, as he is harvesting he tastes the grapes and manifests the type of wine he is going to create. The wines are very thoughtful and pure expressions of the area and time, they're extremely sought after today.
