The Real Wine Fair

The month of May is looking like a wine glutton’s dream. Later in the month is the London Wine Fair, but to get us more than warmed up, is The Real Wine Fair. The standout difference being that the latter is dedicated to artisan vine growers specialising in naturally made wines.

Here’s an excellent opportunity to get to grips with organic, biodynamic and natural wines showcased by over 160 of the most talented independent winemakers from around the globe.  Adding value is an array of guest speakers, seminars and masterclasses, plus international street food stalls to keep you standing through the day. I’m looking forward to wine pairing with traditional French fare from La Cour de Rémi and gorging on dairy with the London Cheesemongers, who promote raw milk and farmhouse methods of production.

As the world slowly moves towards kinder handling of the planet and greater sustainability practices, the chance to connect with wine growers and gain first hand understanding of natural wine principles is a delicious, especially unique experience.
