Faia 2023 - Mai et Kenji Hodgson - Bottle (0.75L)
Mineral White WineWhite
👨🏼🌾 White wine made by Mai & Kenji Hodgson .
Faïa is a woodier but masterful interpretation of Chenin: partially aged in barrels, a natural process, without artifice. The nose blossoms between candied citrus, ripe peach and a subtle buttery touch. The palate combines density and verticality, supported by a fine minerality. The balance between the wine's richness and its saline freshness enhances the length. A broad but lively white, which demands air to unfold.

A superb shop offering some truly beautiful natural wines that are off the beaten path. One drawback: the bottles are generally very expensive; it would be nice to expand the range to include more affordable/pleasure wines.

Several sets of specifications correspond to these designations. While sulfites are very often mentioned, rightly accused of causing headaches, many other products can be included in the composition of so-called conventional wines.
Here is an overview of the different specifications for organic, biodynamic and natural products:
The organic farming specifications (AB label) prohibit the use of any synthetic chemicals in the vineyards and winery. However, they do allow for some oenological safeguards during the winemaking process. Sulfites, for example, are permitted up to 100 mg/L for red wines and 150 mg/L for white wines.
In biodynamic winemaking (Demeter or Biodyvin certified), the winemaker not only works without synthetic chemicals but also takes the lunar calendar into account for all their operations. They also use biodynamic preparations (fermented horn manure, silica, herbal teas, etc.) to strengthen the vines. Overall, the winemaker seeks to integrate viticulture into a holistic environment. Sulfite levels can reach up to 70 mg/L for red wines and 90 mg/L for white wines.
In natural wine (Vin Méthode Nature label), the specifications require the use of organic grapes, fermenting naturally with indigenous yeasts (as in biodynamic winemaking). Natural wines receive no additives during the entire vinification and aging process. Only minimal doses of SO2 are permitted (30 mg/L maximum), and these must be declared by the winemaker. No harsh filtration or alteration techniques are allowed. We also find the designation "Vins SAINS" (Healthy Wines), which aims to completely prohibit the use of sulfites.
We are committed to offering you wines from artisan producers, from small, often family-run estates. That's why we take the time to travel across France, from vineyard to vineyard, in search of those natural wines that truly resonate with us.
We are particularly keen to introduce you to the new winemakers of tomorrow who work tirelessly to offer us magnificent wines.
We want to showcase them, give them greater and clearer visibility, and support them all the way to you!
