Love natural wines, but get overwhelmed by the huge variety? Plain are here to help. With their subscription, you get three natural wines (one red, one white and one sparkling) from producers far and wide brought directly to your door every month. Founder Marcus Hauer is a product designer who first encountered natural wines and their unmistakable aromas of nuts, overripe oranges and kombucha in 2008. Since then he has sought out master winemakers from all over the world for his bottles. Each selection is accompanied by a detailed profile of the product and the vineyard – Marcus appreciates how the different origins of wines enhance their distinctive character. The bottles themselves are designed by gifted wine label specialist Anna Vu, making them as visually pleasing as they are quaffable. So if you are ready to dive into the world of natural wines and get a doorstop surprise every month, you’re in the right hands with Plain.
