For the sake of this wine list, our natural wines are wines that are grown or produced by winemakers implementing organic & biodynamic practices, mostly unfined & unfiltered, and the least amount of sulfur added at the end of bottling, or no sulfur added at all. These wines are complex and interesting much like our food and greatly complement our menu. These wines are alive, have character and evolve very quickly over time in the glass. They are meant to be enjoyed with food, with us here at Alter.

A proponent of lesser-known varietals in atypical locations, his wines are an honest and natural representation of site and vine. Barbera from California? Wines made from Alvarelho grapes? If you didn't know this, it's okay. We didn't either until these wines came along our path.

  • Sicilian Wine Industry Fell Into Boom and Bust Cycles
    Vini di Sicilia Some History Sicily is Italy's southernmost region, and the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. For more than 2500 years Sicily (Sicilia in Italian) has been a significant center of Mediterranean viniculture, although the reputation and style of its wines has changed significantly over that time. The island's location has helped it become one of the world's most diverse melting pots. At one time or another, it was inhabited by the Siculians (after which it was named), Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Normans, Germans and the Spanish. All of these cultures contributed to Sicily's history and influenced the production of wine throughout the region -- though not all of their influences were positive. Wine grapes have always grown on the Italian island of Sicily. The ancient island was covered in grapevines long before the Greeks got there. Ancient civilizations were producing wine on the island as far back as the 17th century BC. Many of the grapes considered to be native to the area were actually brought in by the Phoenicians. The Mediterranean climate with abundant sunshine, balanced rainfall, hilly terrain and soils made rich by Mount Etna’s ash all create the perfect conditions for quality agriculture. The Greeks arrived sometime around 8 BC, bringing other varietals in with them. They also brought innovations such as pruning, varietal selection and low vine training. Large quantities of wine began to flow all over the island. Very, very alcoholic wine. For several centuries, the Sicilian wine industry fell into boom and bust cycles. As the Romans spread their empire, they carried wines from Sicily with them.

  • Blanc De Blancs Nv Brut, Champagne, France
    FRANCE CHAMPAGNE | BLANC DE BLANCS NV BRUT, ODILON DE VARINE, Cellar Master CHAMPAGNE, FRANCE ABOUT THE WINERY Champagne Gosset has been family owned and operated since 1584, making it the oldest wine house in Champagne. The winery’s style delivers pure, precise, elegant and textured wines, with remarkable longevity. These high-quality wines reflect their sourcing, primarily Grand and Premier Cru vineyards, and are crafted without malolactic fermentation and with a minimum of inputs beyond what the grapes provide. ABOUT THE WINE The Grand Blanc de Blancs encompasses the finesse of the Côte des Blancs and the structure of the Montagne de Reims. This cuvée launched in 2011 – a bold move from a winery whose history is rooted in the Pinot Noir territory of Aÿ. However, in recent decades, Gosset’s wines are dominated by Chardonnay, reflecting access to the best Chardonnay sites. The family and winery team offers a wine with finesse, elegance and freshness in the style of its other cuvées. KEY SELLING POINTS • Two keys to Gosset style are avoiding malolactic fermentation, which allows the terroir of the cru vineyards to shine, and the extended lees aging, which adds texture and complexity • During assemblage, all the lots are tasted blind – there are no recipes with Champagne Gosset; dosage is also selected during blind trials • Key crus influence this wine: Avize brings vivacity and purity, Chouilly adds richness and texture and Cramant provides minerality and salinity • Grand Blanc de Blancs is technically an Extra Brut style with 6 g/L dosage TECHNICAL DETAILS Appellation: Champagne, France Varietal Composition: 100% Chardonnay Aging: 4 years on lees before disgorgement | Malolactic Fermentation: None Alcohol: 12.0% | Total Acidity: 6.2 g/L | Residual Sugar: 6.0 g/L “… the latest rendition of the NV Grand Blanc de Blancs Brut exhibits scents of citrus oil, green apples, fennel, white flowers and freshly baked bread.

  • “A New Generation Who Has Come Back to Agriculture”
    “A new generation who has come back to agriculture” The company is called Judeka , was founded in 2007, in honour of a Sicilian contrada (a country road) that is particularly suited for wine. When we didn’t have the vineyard, we bought grapes in Contrada About Judeca. It is a young project created by young people: Valentina Nicodemo, Cesare Nicodemo. We are not from families of winemakers, we haven’t inherited anything. We are the first generation, so Us there isn’t any long history prove but instead we wish to show our love and hope. Presenting the world a just and wonderful Sicily. We strongly wanted to create a sustainable agricultural project that would give hope to young people. Providing confidence in the possibility of investing and staying in one’s own land. “Our passion is to take care of the vineyards and products coming from our land with commitment and sacrifice.” Autori di Emozioni We are in central Sicily, in Caltagirone, just a few km from two important nature reserves: the reserve of Santo Pietroe and the Sughereta di Niscemi, famous for its countless butterflies, and is also where part of the corks we use come from. In 2002 UNESCO awarded the historic centre the title of World Territory Heritage Site. Judeka stands in a magical place: along the ancient Wine Route, on the country road of San Mauro, home to a Greek-Sicilian town founded in the 4th century BC by settlers from Gela. The Greeks probably came across the then navigable rivers that line the vineyards.

  • Wine from Women Winemakers
    Wine from Women Winemakers • Historically, winemaking was a man’s job, often tied to religious bodies/orders • Is there any fundamental “signature” difference in female-made wine? • What unique challenges or opportunities do women winemakers face? 1) Marie Courtin Résonance Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut NV – Aube, France • The Aube is closer to Chablis than to the heart of Champagne in Reims; it has the same Kimmeridgian limestone as Chablis • Dominique Moreau took over a little plot of mostly Pinot Noir vines in the Aube district in 2001; started her Marie Courtin label (named for her grandmother) in 2005 • Dominique’s winemaking is a little different than what’s traditionally been “typical” in Champagne: she makes single vineyard, single varietal, single vintage wine from biodynamically farmed vineyards; uses no commercial yeasts and no dosage • Résonance is from all hand-harvested Pinot Noir fermented in stainless steel; it’s named for the balancing effects of earth and sky that affect wine’s terroir 1) Pewsey Vale Dry Riesling ’12 – Eden Valley, Australia • Eden Valley is a region in South Australia, famous for its Riesling, which is dry and generally very minerally • Pewsey Vale vineyards were first planted in 1847 by an Englishman; 115 years later this area became the center of Australia’s Riesling renaissance • Winemaker is Louisa Rose, who also works for Aussie wineries Yalumba and Hill- Smith; she grew up working on her family’s vineyard in the Yarra Valley and studied theoretical physics before taking on winemaking • Her winemaking

Now talking about wines, the Wine and sprit association of the Great Britain has sponsored the following definition of Wine ―Wine is an alcoholic beverage obtained from the fermentation of the juice of freshly gathered grapes. Fermentation is conducted in the district of origin according to local customs and traditions. To bear the name Wine, the product must come only from grapes. If made from other fruits; the fruit name must be put before the tern Wine eg. Blackberry Wine, Apricot Wine, Fig Wine. Only a small part of the world is Wine producing. This is because the grape will only provide juice of the quality required for conversion into consumable Wine where two climatic conditions prevail. 1. Sufficient sun-shine to ripen the grape 2. Winters that are moderate yet sufficiently cool to give the Wine a chance to rest and restore its strength for the growing and fruiting season.
