A varied selection with a natural-wine emphasis
La CUV describes its range as varied and mostly organic, biodynamic and natural. Bordeaux bottles sit within that wider approach. Ask about the particular producer, vintage and product documentation rather than treating the whole shop as one certification. The branch page also links to click and collect.
