Austrian Natural Wines from Small Family Wineries

Natural wine is about expressing the vineyard, grape and vintage with as little unnecessary intervention as possible. At Kipferl, our natural wine collection focuses on small Austrian family wineries, independent winemakers and carefully chosen bottles that are difficult to find elsewhere in the UK.

Most of our Austrian natural wines are organic or biodynamic. Many are made with native yeasts, minimal filtration, low sulphur and traditional cellar methods. The result is a selection of wines with freshness, texture, individuality and a clear sense of place.

You can also explore our full Austrian wine collection, browse our Austrian white wines, Austrian red wines, orange wines and Austrian sparkling wines.

What Is Natural Wine?

Natural wine usually refers to wine made with minimal intervention in the vineyard and cellar. Many natural winemakers work organically or biodynamically, ferment with naturally occurring yeasts, avoid heavy manipulation and use little or no added sulphur.

The style can vary widely. Some natural wines are clean, bright and classic. Others are more textured, cloudy, savoury or unusual. What connects them is the focus on authenticity, careful farming and a more direct expression of the grape and place.

Organic and Biodynamic Austrian Natural Wines

Austria has become one of Europe’s most exciting countries for organic, biodynamic and low-intervention wine. Many of our producers farm carefully, work by hand and make wines in small quantities, with strong attention to soil, climate and regional character.

At Kipferl, we choose Austrian natural wines from producers whose wines have personality but remain enjoyable to drink. These are not supermarket wines. Many are only available at Kipferl in the UK.

Austrian Orange Wines and Skin-Contact Wines

Orange wine is made from white grapes that spend time on their skins during fermentation. This gives the wine more colour, texture, structure and aromatic complexity than a typical white wine.

Our Austrian orange wines include skin-contact wines made from varieties such as Grüner Veltliner and Roter Veltliner. They are a good choice if you enjoy more textured, savoury and food-friendly wines.

Pet Nat and Naturally Sparkling Austrian Wine

Pet Nat, short for pétillant naturel, is a naturally sparkling wine made by bottling the wine before fermentation has fully finished. The result is usually fresh, lively and expressive, with softer bubbles and a more relaxed style than traditional sparkling wine.

Austrian Pet Nat is a strong choice if you want something unusual for aperitifs, parties, gifting or food pairing. It is also a good introduction to natural sparkling wine.

Which Austrian Natural Wine Should I Choose?

If you want something fresh and approachable, start with a natural Grüner Veltliner or Donauriesling.

If you want texture, grip and more unusual flavours, choose an Austrian orange wine or skin-contact wine.

If you want bubbles, choose a Pet Nat or naturally sparkling Austrian wine.

If you are buying a gift, choose one of our Austrian wine gift boxes or a mixed natural wine selection.

Food Pairings for Natural Wine

Austrian natural wines are excellent food wines. Fresh natural whites work well with salads, fish, vegetables, roast chicken and schnitzel. Orange wines pair well with cheese, charcuterie, mushrooms, roasted vegetables, spiced dishes and richer Austrian food.

Pet Nat and naturally sparkling wines are ideal as aperitifs, but they also work well with fried foods, snacks, light starters and informal celebrations.

You can also enjoy Austrian wines with food at our restaurant in Camden Passage, where Austrian wine is part of the Kipferl experience.
