“Fruitful,” “organic” and “natural” are words that often feel gimmicky, especially when they’re used to market wine. But at Purity Wine (@puritywine), a small, unassuming warehouse bar and winery hidden along Richmond’s waterfront marina, those adjectives are mentioned genuinely to describe a growing, intergenerational community of natural winemakers.
That appreciation for the natural, the unfiltered, the raw, is at the core of Purity Wine — not only for the products the winemakers deliver, but with their way of socializing, which aims to replace the perceived snobbery of a typical wine experience with purely welcoming vibes.
Now, the fruits of their collective labor will culminate with the winery’s final party of the year, “NYE Wine Down” — a celebration that promises to pop more than a few bottles. The $75 event will include an entire night’s supply of natural wines, bites provided by Asian American food pop-up SMAX and, for the first 30 arrivals, a hand-painted, limited-edition bottle of Purity’s unreleased “Strawberry Bubblicious” pétillant naturel (or pét-nat) — a pink sparkling wine.
The party is meant to share Purity’s intersectional culture of accessibility, joy, art, music, food and, of course, “natty wines” with old and new friends alike. That includes welcoming more young folks of color who might have felt excluded from the wine scene in the past.
