FESTIVAL OF NATURAL WINEGROWERS AND SPONTANEOUS WINES

GrapeSton is a gathering of Croatian natural winemakers. The focus of GrapeSton are those winemakers who are also winegrowers. We hope to support the idea that wine is “made” first and foremost in the vineyard and that wine making is essentially a farming practice, rooted in relationship to the land and gratitude for the gifts of nature.

Here are some facts about GrapeSton:

• All participants are both winegrowers and winemakers
• All grapes are grown organically, following ecological principles (not necessarily certified) 
• All wine is made with low or no intervention, produced by spontaneous fermentation with autochthonous yeast
• If used, additions of SO2 must be responsible and moderate
