In a documentary called Living Wine (2022), Lori Miller introduces several winemakers from Northern California and investigates how they came to make natural wine. Using this documentary as a starting point for analysis, I will develop what it means to make natural wine in California, as opposed to France, and try to give some historical as well as political perspective on the birth of this movement in the US. 

Eléonore Obis is maitresse de conférences at Lettres Sorbonne Université. She has always been passionate about wine, and made it the focus of her research a few years ago. She questions the transfers between Europe and the US in the winemaking and wine marketing fields, and follows the development of the natural wine movement in English-speaking countries.
