Black Betty 2021 by 2Naturkinder is a natural wine made in Franken with Domina and Dornfelder grapes.

2Naturkinder farm 7 hectares, and besides their Vater & Sonn Cuvee, have no added sulphur added to their wines. The married couple behind 2Naturkinder feature a lot of bats on their labels, as they actually use bat dung from a nearby Bat Colony to fertilise their soil.

Production details of Black Betty: Black Betty is made by 2Naturkinder in Franken, Germany, run by Melanie and Michael. The wine is named after the first lamb born in their Domina vineyard. Domina, Regent and a small portion of Spätburgunder grow on shell limestone soils in Kitzingen, Sulzfeld and Volkach. They farm with a lunar-calendar approach and use bat dung from a nearby colony to fertilise the soil (which is why bats appear on many of their labels). The Regent is pressed directly and poured over Domina bunches for a touch of colour and tannin, then ages in big oak barrels before being blended with Spätburgunder aged in stainless steel.

Tasting Notes: We have not yet tried this vintage of Black Betty by 2Naturkinder, but we hear it has notes of tart cranberry, Swedish berries, bay leaf, woody herbs and a chalky cliff-face minerality.

We ship every Wednesday. Order by Tuesday 10am.

2Naturkinder

As 2Natukinder who use no added sulphites state: "Less control means there is a bigger risk to fail. But also allows for unpredictable beauty and enables moments of true resonance"

With backgrounds in Jewish studies and philosophy Melanie and Michael worked for science publishers in Germany and the UK for several years before going back to the family-winery founded in 1843. With the 2013 vintage 2Naturkinder was born. They farm about seven hectares of land, mostly close to the winery on the hills of two little valleys.

Depending on their needs the plots are farmed individually: Fine compost if the soil is lacking balance, compost tea and a very low tilling to increase the amount of humus. Diverse greening, viti-forestry projects and homemade brews to minimize the amount of copper needed to deal with downy mildew.

In addition to the MOST EPIC CELLAR ever, going down 2 floors into the ground which feels like something the Dwarves would make in Lord of the Rings, 2Naturkinder also make a Brutal!!! wine, which they were allowed to use the new official gold label for, despite not being a founding member. This is quite unusual, and they are the first and only producer allowed to do so in the Brutal group
