Top Organic Restaurant Wines

Best 12 organic restaurant winesTop 14 Organic Restaurant Wines for Quality and Value

Our top organic restaurant wines taste great, are approachable and have a great value to price ratio, both for bottle and by the glass programs. The farm-to-table trend is alive and well in most metropolitan cities, but while a menu may focus on organic food, the wine list is often an afterthought. For years, organic wines had a bad rap for being unreliable, unstable and often unpalatable. But the organic wines of today are winning awards and impressing even the fussiest customers.

Millennials are Leading the Organic Restaurant Wine Movement

According to a study conducted by Bankrate.com, the average Millennial eats out 5 times per week, more so than any previous generation. And 36% of wine drinkers are Millennials. All 79 million of them are now of legal drinking age. More so than any other generation, Millennials purchase wines from around the globe. Variety is what they crave. Millennials are embracing organics, they grew up with organic food, are the group most interested in organic products, including wine. This age group is leading the natural wine movement, demanding organic and Biodynamic choices both on and off premise. Millennials seek a “fashionable” wine from faraway regions that allows them to stand apart from the crowd.

Quality, Family Produced Organic Restaurant Wines

Each of our family produced organic wines listed below are made with 100% organically grown grapes, are vegan friendly or certified vegan, and are Non-GMO Project Verified. Each contain a minimal amount of added sulfites (never to exceed more than 100ppm) to help protect and preserve the wines, which is especially critical in a solid BTG program. Our winemakers carefully craft each bottle to meet both varietal expectations and uphold the quality standards required for both fine dining and casual fare.

 

Top Organic Restaurant Wines By The Glass

Pizzolato Pinot Grigio – Suggested BTG $7-8

Pinot Grigio - Organic restaurant wines

Every menu should include this perennial favorite, so why not choose organically grown? “Bright straw color. Fruity aromas and flavors of tinned pineapple, tinned pears, lemon butter, and straw with a satiny, soft, fruity light-to-medium body and a smooth, breezy finish with soft, fruit tannins and no oak. A plush pinot grigio.” Tastings.com 88 points

 


Tarantas Tempranillo Crianza – Suggested BTG $7-8

Tarantas Tempranillo - Best organic restaurant wines

A classic and versatile Spanish red. “Bright ruby black color. Aromas of ripe forest berries, freshly tilled earth, fine leather, and roasted nuts with a round, lively, fruity medium-full body and a seamless, complex, long bramble, tar, cured meats, and black pepper finish with well-integrated, firm tannins and moderate oak.” Tastings.com 92 points

 


Tarantas Sparkling Rosé – Suggested BTG $7-8

Tarantas Sparkling Rose

Tarantas Sparkling Rosé is made of 100% Spanish Bobal, and is the perfect spring-summer patio wine. Dried strawberry notes in the nose and red currants in the mouth. The finish is soft, not sweet, and the gentle character of the wine belies its ability to handle stronger flavors, even grilled fish and chicken.

Velvety tannins emerge, with explosive notes of minerality coming from the basaltic rocks from Los Lingues vineyard. Elegant and fresh, this reflects the sense of origin. James Suckling 91 Points
