Best organic wine to drink in 2022, according to our oenologist

For those who like their wine rich and spicy, look no further. This certified organic red Côtes du Rhône leads with jammy red fruits and could not be smoother.

A heavenly pairing with tuna steak, our top-rated organic white wine comes from sunny Spain. Elegant and fruity — serve chilled and savor notes of honeysuckle, apple and stone fruit.

Made in a certified biodynamic vineyard (the ultimate mark of approval for natural winemaking, meaning the vineyard employs 100% organic practices), this is an intense Grenache from Australia’s highly respected Hedonistic estate.

The aroma is full of tart black cherry and cocoa complexity, which develops on the palate with spices of white pepper and cardamom. At 14% ABV, it packs a punch, so you might want to limit yourself to one drink with dinner.

The latest release from the French estate of Brad and Angelina won over during our taste test; Pale pink in the glass, it’s crisp and acidic, with bags of flavors of citrus, green apple and fresh herbs. The perfect summer drink, and 100% organic too.

If you like your rosé with lots of red fruit character, this is the summer blush for you.

It is high in acidity, which means it will work just as well as an appetizer or with lighter dishes like vongole or caprese salad. And at £11, this will be our fridge staple for a long, hot summer (fingers crossed!).

Perfect for staycations and parties, this homemade bubbly is entirely organic. Although not vintage (meaning it’s made from a blend of multi-year grapes), it’s packed with cherished notes of brioche, red apple and a fruity blend of passion fruit, peach and of mango.

Created with a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunière (from Soil Association-certified vineyards), this English sparkling is sweet as honey with a bright floral backbone for balance.

Our testers felt it could hold up to big champagnes (and high prices), which is a testament to its quality and complexity.

It’s the kind of red we’d sink to while on vacation – and it’s the next best thing to a lazy afternoon in the Sicilian sun.

Pair it with a simply cooked steak or tomato-based pasta to bring out the rich notes of raisins and cherries.

Red wines like Cabernet Sauvignon have high levels of antioxidants, making them a relatively healthy choice if you drink alcohol in moderation.

Add to that the fact that Bonterra’s California grapes are all organic and bursting with dark fruit, and we’d say it’s a dream pairing with steak for your next date night.

It’s easy to stick with your tried and true old white wine, but this organic fiano is a great easy-drinking alternative, when you’re craving something new.

Available at the case, it is fresh, with notes of citrus, stone fruit and nuts; and goes very well with roast chicken.

After Spain, Italy has the most organic vineyards of any country in the world, so it’s no surprise that we’re showcasing another varietal from this part of the world.

You’ll notice this pecorino is fruity, with hints of white peach, apple and melon, as well as a creamier, savory touch that will have you coming back for another drink. As one of the first organic winemakers in Italy, Saladini Pilastri clearly knows what it’s doing.

A fine example of an unoaked chardonnay from a highly respected sustainable organic and vegan producer (with change from £10!).

As you’d expect from Chile’s warmer climate, it’s all about tropical fruits here – pineapple, grapefruit and peach – with a deliciously long finish you won’t soon forget.
