HOUSTON – Natural wine is becoming popular in recent months, especially here in Texas.
According to Texas Highways Magazine and RAW WINE, natural wine is made organically without removing anything from the barrel or cellar. Most wines have additives or processed ingredients that makes it taste the way we’re used to, natural wines do not add any of them.
