We can either let it be tamed or set it free. -Where The Wild Things Are Wild wines, AKA native yeast fermentation, is a category of wines you need to try. They take advantage of the indigenous yeast populations that exist out in the vineyard and come into the winery on the grapes. The yeast will kickstart the fermentation, and if handled properly can go the distance until all of the sugars are turned into alcohol. A lot of producers will “pitch” in commercially produced yeast to take over the native yeast so the fermentation is strong, with less risk of it going sideways. Native yeast wines require more effort and a greater tolerance for risk, but the resulting wines are set free to express the nuances of their true terroir. It’s time to see the wild side! 🔥
