Natural wines, organic grapes,
and skin contact.
We craft natural wines that are artisanal, raw, and meant to be shared.
What is natural wine?
Also known as raw wine, or minimal intervention wine - we're all about letting our grapes sing and making wines that are living reflections of the land
1. FARMING
Our natural wines begin with sustainable farming: grapes grown using organic or biodynamic farming methodologies.
2. FERMENTATION
We let the grapes undergo spontaneous fermentation by their own native and wild yeast as opposed to using lab-grown.
3. WINERY
In the winery, we avoid the 60+ additives that are common in conventional wines like animal products, synthetic chemicals, flavorings, or manipulation like pasteurization. Limited sulfur to protect the wines through bottling is the only addition.
We craft natural wines the way you would.
Tinto was founded by Anish, a former finance professional who after a near-fatal car accident left him in a hospital bed for six-months in his 20’s, reevaluated life and nearly became a monk. Instead, his previous time having lived in Spain where he first discovered minimal intervention wines, drove Anish to create a natural wine project centered around gathering, community, and fresh, lively, wines crafted with the utmost care & intentionality.
Our efforts include being transparent about our production methods and nutrition statements, working with vineyards to convert them to organic farming, and since our first vintage was released in Feb of '22, Tinto has remained minority-owned by our family & mates.

One of the Best...
This glou glou might be the best wine I have ever had. It should be a 99 point wine...Neither I, nor anyone I shared these with had a hangover...I just placed an order for 3 more cases. Wow.
