"Natural" and "organic" are two of the most used and least defined words in wine, so before we recommend a club, let's be honest about what they actually mean. Get the definitions straight and choosing between the clubs below gets a lot easier — because they're aimed at genuinely different priorities.
Here are the clubs we'd point you to if you care about how the wine is farmed and made, and a candid explanation of the labels so you know what you're signing up for. For the wider list, see our best wine clubs of 2026.
What "natural," "organic" and "low-intervention" actually mean
These terms overlap but aren't interchangeable. Quickly, and without the marketing gloss:
- Organic refers mainly to farming: grapes grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers. In the US it's a regulated term — "USDA Organic" has legal meaning, and there's a separate "made with organic grapes" category that allows limited added sulfites. Organic tells you about the vineyard, not necessarily the cellar.
- Biodynamic is organic farming plus a whole-farm, calendar-driven philosophy (certified by bodies like Demeter). Stricter than organic, and more about the growing than the winemaking.
- Natural / low-intervention describes the winemaking: minimal additives, native yeasts, little or no filtering, and little to no added sulfur. It is not a legally defined or certified term, so "natural" means whatever the producer says it means. That's why two natural wines can taste wildly different — one clean and bright, one funky and cloudy.
The honest takeaway: "natural" is a philosophy, not a guarantee of taste, and it's not regulated. Some low-intervention wines are stunning; some are faulty in ways their fans have learned to like. If you're new to the style, expect more variation bottle to bottle than you'd get from a conventional club. A good club in this space is one that curates for quality, not just for the label.
Our top natural & organic wine clubs
1. Plonk Wine Club — best all-round organic & natural pick
Plonk is our default recommendation here. It focuses on organic, biodynamic and small-farmer bottles from around the world, and — importantly — it curates for drinkability rather than chasing funk for its own sake. You can choose red, white or mixed boxes in a few sizes (reportedly from around $110 for four bottles, up to a 12-bottle option), and take delivery monthly, every other month or quarterly. It's flexible, has a clear point of view, and is a genuinely good entry into the category.
Best for: Anyone who wants organic/natural bottles that are still approachable, with flexibility on box size and cadence.
Watch for: Box-size options and whether you're getting reds, whites or a mix — set that at signup.
2. Dry Farm Wines — best for low-sugar, health-focused drinking
Dry Farm is the most opinionated club on this page, and that's the point. Every wine is natural, farmed organically or biodynamically, additive-free, and — its signature promise — lab-tested to be sugar-free and lower in alcohol. If your interest in natural wine is as much about how it makes you feel as how it's made, nothing else is this focused. It's also the priciest option here (reportedly from around $186 for six bottles), so the premium has to be worth it to you.
Best for: Drinkers optimizing for the health angle — low sugar, lower alcohol, no additives — who'll pay for that specificity.
Watch for: The exact sugar/ABV claims and membership terms, which are central to the value here — confirm them at signup.

How to choose between them
- You want variety and approachability: Plonk. It's the more flexible, more forgiving starting point, and easier to love if you're new to the style.
- You're optimizing for low sugar / lower alcohol: Dry Farm Wines. Its lab-tested promise is the whole reason it exists, and no generalist matches it.
- You're brand new to natural wine entirely: start with Plonk's mixed box, and read our beginners guide if you want an even gentler on-ramp before going niche.
One practical note that matters more here than usual: because "natural" isn't regulated, read each club's own description of how it defines its wines. The good ones are specific about farming and additives; be a little wary of any that just wave the word "natural" around without saying what they mean.
Gifting a natural-wine lover?
A natural or organic club is a thoughtful gift for someone who's into the category — you're giving them discovery, not just a bottle. If that's your goal, our best wine club to give as a gift guide covers how to choose and size it.
FAQ
What's the difference between organic and natural wine? Organic refers to farming — grapes grown without synthetic chemicals, and in the US it's a regulated term. Natural refers to winemaking — minimal additives and intervention — and it is not legally defined. A wine can be one, both, or neither.
Is natural wine healthier? Not automatically. Some natural wines have less added sulfur and no additives, and clubs like Dry Farm Wines specifically test for low sugar and lower alcohol. But "natural" alone isn't a health certification, and it's still alcohol. Judge the specific claims, not the label.
Does natural wine taste different? Often, yes. Low-intervention winemaking can produce brighter, more distinctive — sometimes funkier or cloudier — wines, with more bottle-to-bottle variation than conventional wine. A well-curated club (like Plonk) filters for quality so you get the interesting end, not the faulty end.
Which natural wine club is best for beginners? Plonk, because it curates for drinkability and lets you choose approachable mixed boxes. Dry Farm is more specialized and pricier, better once you know you want the low-sugar profile.
Why is Dry Farm Wines more expensive? You're paying for a narrow, lab-tested specification — sugar-free, lower-alcohol, additive-free natural wine — and the sourcing and testing that requires. Whether that premium is worth it depends on how much the health angle matters to you.
Can these clubs ship to my state? Not always — US wine shipping is regulated state by state. Confirm your state is served before signing up.
The bottom line
If you want organic and natural wine that's still easy to enjoy, start with Plonk — flexible, well-curated, and beginner-forgiving. If your priority is specifically low-sugar, lower-alcohol, additive-free drinking, Dry Farm Wines is the more focused (and pricier) choice. Either way, read how each club defines its wines, and confirm current pricing and shipping before you commit.
