Raisis Red

Raisis is part of a fancy trio of wines made from these amazing disease-resistant grapes – proper little superheroes of the vineyard! These grapes are tough as old boots, naturally fighting off pests and nasties without needing all them chemicals winemakers normally chuck about. Typically, winemakers rely on substances like sulphur and copper to protect their vines. While these are allowed in organic farming, sulphur is still a chemical, and copper is a heavy metal that can accumulate in the soil over time. Not ideal, is it?

With climate change making everything harder for vineyards, winemakers must use more treatments to keep their crops alive. But these grapes? They don’t need any of that faff. It keeps the soil pure and the winemaking process lovely and clean. So, you get a wine that’s not only better for the planet but tastes like the vineyard itself – all natural, no mucking about.

Now, organic wine like this isn’t just about tasting good (which it does, by the way – lush!). It’s about feeling good too. You’re not just sipping on something delish; you’re doing your bit for sustainability. And when you’re sitting there with a glass of Raisis Red, you’ll feel all light and fancy, not weighed down. It’s the wine that’s as refreshing as it is responsible.

Food pairing recommendations

Raisis Red goes beautifully with all sorts of food. It's a match made in heaven with meaty dishes—think steak, burgers, or a lovely roast beef. But don’t stop there! It’s just as fabulous with veggie options too, like a creamy mushroom risotto or a hearty stroganoff. It’s the kind of drink that just knows how to fit in, whatever’s on your plate!
