Join us on this very special episode of the Naked Wine Pod as we welcome Nathan Wagner, an amateur home hard cider brewer. Not only is he Kendra's amazing father, but as it turns out, he's quite knowledgeable on the topic of home brewing! So take a listen, grab your organically farmed fruit off your property (or organic via neglection as Nathan coined it hehe), and start experimenting with your own homemade brew! The same pillars of natural wine still apply, no yeast and additives necessary to make something deliciously wholesome :)
What we drank:
3 different batches of homemade hard apple cider from Nathan Wagner & friends up at the Lord's Land in Mendocino County, CA

Here's our take on the sometimes stuffy wine deducing method. Look. Swirl. Sniff. Drink. Drink again. You either like what you have in the bottom of your glass or not. But at the end of the day, the best thing to drink is what's in your hand. Cheers!
What we drank:
Matthew Coste - MC2 - 2017 50% Gamay / 50% Pinot Noir- Loire, France

By now you've heard the term, "natural wine", but isn't all wine natural? WRONG. Because we have no labeling laws for wine, it can be a very unnatural product, as over 72 chemical additions are allowed into wine here by the U.S. federal government. Here are our top 5 reasons why we believe natural wine is indeed a healthier choice for you over conventionally made, mass-produced wine:
1) No pesticides during farming
2) Additive & chemical-free in the cellar
3) No added sugar
4) Little to no added preservatives (SO2)
5) It’s better for the environment :)
This is the pet nat we drank while taping:
*Furlani - Bianco "Alpino" Frizzante (Somewhere high up in the Dolomites of Northern Italy) -

This is what we chugged down while taping this episode:

We sat down with Owner, Allie Balin, of Balin Beverage Co, to find out all the ins and outs of what it takes to start up your own wine importing/distribution company. Along the way, we found out why Reisling pairs with (almost) everything, why glou glou wines are seafood restaurants best friend, and most importantly...why we believe natural wine has more soul than mass-produced, conventionally made wines.

What is Orange wine? What is skin contact white wine? Turns out they're both terms to describe a unique category of wine that has actually been around for thousands of years! We can thank the Georgian's for that (country, not the state).
In this interview with Account Manager, Troy Doram, of Alluvial Wines we discuss the history of orange wine, taste thru some delicious wine in his portfolio, and discuss why orange wine is the King/Queen of wine types for food pairings.
Big thanks to Troy for letting us sample some amazing orange wines in Alluvial's portfolio:
*Two Shepards - Pinot Gris Skin Fermented 2020
*Tessier - Skin-contact Chardonnay 2020

Ever stared blankly at a massive wall of wine at your local wine shop, hoping to score some natural wine but you don't know where to start? Well, then this episode is for you! Your friendly naked wine pod hosts Rem & Kendra share our 3 favorite tips with you for how to spot a natural wine (LOOK FOR THE IMPORTER!). And we give you some guidance so that you don't fall into the trap of buying big corporate wine producers wines with fancy buzzwords on the labels like "sulfite-free" or "made with organic grapes". Sorry, to break it to you, you can't buy natural wine under $10, and no $3 buck chuck from TJ's isn't natural even though it's made with organic grapes.
We drank Purity Wine's - Kerfluffle (take 2), a rose pet nat from California on today's episode.

Jeff Bonafede from Uncorked Wine Shops in Hermosa and Manhattan Beach joins the Naked Wine Pod duo! On our first-ever interview with a wine shop owner, we discuss how he fell in love with wine, how he opened up a wine shop 10+ years ago, his love for representing small winemakers in his shop, and how the growing demand for natural wine is affecting how he stocks his stores. Ultimately, it has lead to the launch of an organic-only wine club that he's super psyched about!
We drank a beautiful bottle from Jeff's store, a Nebiollo from Piedmont, Italy by the legendary biodynamic farming producer Lorenzo Corino. Achille, 2016
