Bodegas Godelia Mencia 2016
Perfect expression of Mencía from Bierzo. This vintage is characterised by a great fruit concentration. We can find a lot of nuances, red fruit, violets and mineral notes, which are assembled with the nuances provided by the oak ageing. The palate is fresh, meaty and elegant with a great finish.
Bodegas Zarate Albariño 2019
The Zarate estate encompasses a total of 9.6 Ha of vines, over 12 different parcels. It is located in the Val de Salnés subzone which is prized for its cool climate and close proximity to the sea, which gives the wines a ‘salty’ character. The soils here are what is called Xabre, or weathered granite, which also helps to accentuate the intense minerality of the wines. The vines are farmed organically with many biodynamic techniques employed as well.
“The eponymous 2019 Zarate is their entry-level Albariño, a vintage with structure and acidity, still very young, a powerful vintage with more of everything and probably a long-distance runner. It’s varietal and clean, characterful, powerful and with a long, tasty finish, vibrant and almost salty.” The Wine Advocate

Ramon Jane “Cap de Pardals”
A slightly off dry sparkling rose with super fluffy little bubbles that carry beautiful notes of lavender, watermelon and cola cubes. About as natural as they come and one of those sparkling wines that sip tooooo easy!
Ramon Jane Ovella Negra 2019
From biodynamic estate vineyards of calcareous clay soils. Hand-harvested in small lug bins, sorting in the vineyard, grapes are chilled and pressed. Single fermentation in the bottle with indigenous yeasts and no additions. No SO2 added.
Garnacha Blanca and Malvasia de Sitges. An unusual blend makes this wine stand out, there’s very little of either grape in Penedès. Two weeks of skin contact maceration give an orange appearance, lots of fruit and texture.
