Natural wine in Québec

(You may also order natural wines – that i have qualified – online for delivery across Canada.)

Herebelow are natural wines that I recommend and how to buy them in Quebec:

Here below is my selection of natural wines: sulphur dioxide (SO2) often is not added during winemaking or bottling. Only a few bottles may contain sulfites – in very small quantities — around 10 mg per liter. The establishments must sell by the bottle (without asking you to purchase anything else, even if they are bistros). []
