Our 7 step process to find the world’s best wines

When you sit down with a glass of wine, you want the best experience.

We do too. Everyone on our team loves wine, cares about what we put in our body, and supports farming that’s better for the Earth.

That’s why we developed a 7 step process to find pure Natural Wine. This process makes sure EVERY bottle can be part of any lifestyle of choice (Paleo, Keto, etc), tastes delicious, pairs with all foods, and is grown with respect for Nature.

Step 1: We start with real, organic family farms.

100% of our wines are grown organically with love on a small family farm. No pesticides, herbicides, or any other “-cides” are used. Only nutrient rich soils and lots of sun.

Step 2: We only partner with growers who don’t irrigate their vines.

“Dry farming” - it’s our name! This means none of our growers use water irrigation. In fact, dry farming saves millions of gallons of water each year, and produces antioxidant-rich grapes. As the vines search for their own water source under the earth, they soak up more nutrients along the way.

Step 3: We run through every step of the grower’s winemaking process.

The FDA allows 76 additives in winemaking (like dyes and thickeners), but our wines don’t have any artificial enhancements. We visit our growers, meet them in person, tour their winery, and walk through their vineyards - all to make sure the wines are naturally grown and crafted. No intense human manipulation, heavy machinery, or other conventional methods.

Step 4: Our 10 person panel tastes each wine.

Every wine is tasted and tested by our tasting panel, making sure every sip is pure, fresh, and delicious. Taste is one of the most important elements of the wine experience; if it’s not delicious, it’s not good wine!

Step 5: We run a nutritional analysis to make sure there’s no sugar.

Conventional wines can have a lot of sugar in them (even if they’re not “sweet”). Before we share any wine, we send it to a lab to test for sugar. Because we test, we know that every bottle you drink is sugar free, so you can enjoy without sacrificing your goals or lifestyle.

Step 6: Then, we run an analysis for alcohol & sulfites.

Alcohol levels in the most popular conventional wines average over 14.5%. We make sure every wine is 12.5% alcohol or less. We think this creates a better drinking experience. We also test for sulfites, which are often added in excess in conventional wines. We want to make sure each wine has the lowest possible amount of sulfites.

Step 7: We taste each wine AGAIN.

Taste is important! We want every wine to taste beautiful and delicious, so we taste each bottle twice. At the wine’s final stage, we taste each one again to make sure they taste as good as before. And finally, we share these wines with you!

Store bought wines and most wines in restaurants only meet one or two steps (if they meet any).

That’s why we started Dry Farm Wines with a mission to find the best, purest, most delicious wines on Earth.
