ABOUT THE PRODUCER
 

Seen as the rebellious rock star winemaker for many in the world of wine, three years ago we excitedly blogged about the arrival of Frank Cornelissen, the demi-god of natural wines, to our D&N Portfolio. With all his wild and sometimes zany ideas, Frank has never been one to rest on his laurels even after quickly reaching the lauded status of the Godfather of Natural Wines. But that was never the endgame for Frank. Evolution, innovation, and revelation are part of his questing personality – and also within his wines’ DNA.

Back in the early days of the natural wine movement, everyone was beating a drum of how minimalist you could go. And Frank Cornelissen was exalted by the new vanguard as the ultimate anti-hero naturalista! Today, Cornelissen concedes that his first ten years were very experimental and that he took things too close to the edge.
