Terroir
For years we play with flavors from our wild landscape. With fermentation of roots, infusion of seeds, diluting of roasted oystershell, Cul Sec creates a terroir that challenges your tongue. With minerals and punchy ingredients we create a full and complex texture and mouthfeel. A long research and playground of Fruitslagers in a bottle.
Alternative to natural wine
We missed the bold non alcoholic flavors and texture that we always find in wild nature. Cul Sec is an alternative for a good funky natural wine with a little fermented sparkle. Perfect while eating, aperitive or in the forest. Drink it medium cold, in your favorite type of wine glass
Restoration of terroir
Before the harvest season, the first bunches of grapes are cut out to give the others more sugar. That fresh-sweet pinot noir or gewurztraminer gives Cul Sec the perfect crispness. We work only with grapes grown naturally with character. In our cooking, we add the terroir with wild herbs, wood, minerals, seaweed and ancient fermentation techniques. This makes our 0.0 wine a funky journey through fresh-cut fields and wild mineral cliffs.

Flavor notes from the rouge en voiture that go well with cheese, especially the slightly softer cheeses.And of course preferably a cheese board of cheeses from your neighborhood.

Salad Mineral
Balad mineral goes perfectly with summer herb salads. A salad is the representation of and around the vegetable garden in any season. Wildflowers and pickled spruce tops finish it off.
But even in the wild, seasons give it flavor. Along the Dutch coastline, all kinds of salty herbs and vegetables grow. For example, check out sea kale, beach beet or sea fennel. And especially use a delicious salty salad.
