Q. Can you make wine with no sulfites in it?
Q. Does biodynamic wine contain sulfites?
Biodynamic wines employ organic practices, as they avoid pesticides and depend on compost, rather than chemical fertilizer. Certified biodynamic wines, however, are permitted to contain up to 100 parts per million of sulfites, far more than the USDA or top Canadian standard for certified organic wines.

Q. Is there sulfite free wine?
Sulfite-free wines do not exist. It is literally literally impossible. Sulfites are also a preservative, but the fermentation process doesn’t produce enough sulfites to create the legendary cellar wines rich people love bragging about. But you’re probably not allergic to sulfites.
No, your run-of-the-mill wine aerator does not remove sulfites (or tannins), it just lets the wine go on a speed date with oxygen, which can help bring out the wine’s aromas.
Q. What’s the philosophy for winemaking in Rudera?
Sulfite free wine is any wine that not only doesn’t have added sulfites but whose natural sulfite levels are below a legally defined threshold. However, sulfites are a natural byproduct of the fermentation of grapes into wine, so finding a wine that genuinely has no sulfites at all is close to impossible.

Q. How often can you drink NSA wine without sulfites?
Without sulfites, they are also fragile, spoil easily and do not improve with age. She recommends drinking NSA wines within 18 of months of bottling, and ordering often to keep the wine fresh. Of course, it also means buying from a source that “turns” NSA wines often and stores them properly.
