What is a wine without
sulfites?
A wine without sulfites, or more precisely without added sulfites, is a beverage resulting from natural vinification where no sulfur is addedduring fermentation or aging. It is necessary to distinguish between naturally
occurring sulfites, resulting from grape fermentation, and sulfites added by the winemaker to stabilize, protect against oxidation, and extend the wine's shelf life.
Traditionally, sulfites play an antioxidant and antimicrobial role. They help protect the aromas, color, and freshness of the wine, whether it is a red, white, or orange wine. However,
their presence in excess can mask natural aromas, alter the bouquet, and cause allergic reactions in some consumers.
Wines without added sulfites fully express the purity of the grape variety, the aromatic richness of the terroir, and the freshness of the vintage. This offers a more authentic
and lively tasting experience. To preserve this quality, bag-in-box (BIB) packaging is ideal: it protects the wine from oxidation thanks to an airtight pouch and a tap that prevents air from entering. It is ideal for ensuring optimal preservation of aromas and prolonged freshness.
At Let it BiB, we rigorously select vintages without added sulfites, derived from organic farming and meticulous vinification, to offer you natural, fruity, and expressive wines to enjoy with confidence.

The bag-in-box (BIB)format has established itself today as an innovative and environmentally friendly alternative, especially for lovers of natural and organic wines.
Thanks to its reduced carbon footprint, BIB is 7 to 9 times more ecological than the traditional glass bottle. This packaging preserves the freshness, typicality, and aromatic purity of red, white, or orange winesmade from grape varieties such as:
· Grenache,
· Pinot Noir,
· Chardonnay, or
· Gamay.
By limiting oxidation through an airtight pouch and a tap that prevents air from entering, the BIB perfectly protects
wines without added sulfites. This configuration makes it possible to guarantee a tasting faithful to the expression of the terroir, the vintage, and the grape variety.
The value for moneyof the box of wine without sulfites is also remarkable. The BIB is also offered

Tips for properly storing your
wines without sulfites in BIB
To fully enjoy the aromatic richness and freshnessof your wines without sulfites in BIB, it is essential to respect a few storage rules. To this end, it is recommended to install your box in a cool place, away from light and temperature variations, ideally around 12 to 15°C.
Also avoid any exposure to heat,
which could alter the tannic structure, minerality, and fruit aromas of your red, white, or orange wines. Thanks to the airtight system of the bag-in-box, the shelf life after opening reaches up to 6 weeks, without risk of oxidation, which allows you to enjoy each glass under optimal conditions.
Since wines without sulfites are more sensitive to oxygen, it is recommended to consume the contents of the BIB within
two months after opening. You will thus be able to preserve the purity of the grape variety, the freshness of the vintage, and the typicality of the terroir. For powerful red wines, a slight decanting can reveal all the aromatic complexity, while white and orange wines are best enjoyed well chilled.
Finally, be sure to keep the BIB in a vertical position and not to puncture the pouch, in order to ensure optimal preservation of your natural vintages. At Let it BiB, we
accompany you so that every tasting is a moment of pleasure, discovery, and respect for the work of the winemaker and the vineyard.
