See the full Melbourne guide →Biodynamic winemaking follows a holistic farming philosophy that treats the vineyard as a self-sustaining ecosystem. Certified biodynamic producers follow strict agricultural calendars and avoid synthetic chemicals in both vineyard and cellar.
Organic wine is produced from grapes grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilisers. Organic certification varies by region but consistently demands a commitment to chemical-free viticulture.
Low-intervention (or minimal-intervention) winemaking prioritises natural fermentation with native yeasts, minimal sulphur additions, and little to no fining or filtration. The aim is to let the vineyard and vintage express themselves with as little winemaker interference as possible.
Regenerative viticulture goes beyond organic farming to actively restore soil health, increase biodiversity, and sequester carbon. It's the most holistic approach to sustainable winemaking, treating the vineyard as part of a broader ecological system.
The Coravin Guide selects venues where these commitments are reflected meaningfully in the wine-by-the-glass program — not just as marketing, but as a genuine philosophy guiding list curation and producer relationships.
