What is Natural Wine I ask myself before 'Jenny & Francois' Fall Tasting

Way before I was invited to attend their 'Fall Portfolio Tasting' (on Monday, September 8) what put Jenny Lefcourt and François Ecot of 'Jenny & Francois Selections' on my radar was Wine's Odd Couple 'Urban Vintage' an intriguing portrait by Peter Hellman (NY Sun, November 07).

To get back to the topic at hand, the event on Monday is described as A Tasting of Natural (Mostly) French Wines.

What is a Natural Wine I wondered?

How can you define it?

Well it seems hard to pinpoint?

Eric Asimov with Natural Wines Redux (The Pour, March 2007) did not clarify anything.
