To truly understand natural wine, the authors knew they had to experience it firsthand. So they packed their bags and hit the road. From the limestone caves of the Loire to the sun-drenched hills of Sicily, they harvested grapes at dawn, slept in overbooked hotels and haunted castles, had kitchen dance parties, and stayed up late drinking, debating, and laughing. But no matter where the journey took them, each day ended the same way: gathered around a table, sharing meals and stories with the winemakers who are shaping the future of wine.

The result is Spilled: Natural Winemakers Stories & Recipes--a book that blends intimate storytelling, evocative photography, and 34 home-cooked recipes straight from the winemakers' tables. More than just a wine book or a cookbook, Spilled is a celebration of the human side of winemaking--the patience, passion, and occasional chaos behind every great bottle.
