SubscribeBoulder’s The Kitchen Has New, Back-To-Earth Wine List
The Kitchen, an early champion of the farm-to-table approach to building a menu, has introduced a new wine list that will thrill people who pepper conversations with words like “sustainable,” “organic” and “biodynamic.”
On March 7, all of the wines in the Boulder restaurant now come from grapes that are farmed “sustainably,” are organic, and are biodynamic, according to a press release.
This is a wee bit confusing. Something grown biodynamically will de facto be grown organically (biodynamic is hyper-organic, and includes planting and harvest guides based on lunar cycles and astrology, and involves, among other things, the use of buried steer horns to allegedly boost soil fertility).
Regardless, it’s a cool idea even if most of the wines are organic and sustainably farmed (and not biodynamic). The Kitchen claims it’s the first restaurant in the nation to cobble together a farm-to-table wine list, which includes hundreds of labels.
Good for The Kitchen.
