Terroir al Limit make some of the most elegant and expressive wines in the Priorat. @luisgutierrezsd @wine_advocate recently said: “The wines seem to be going from strength to strength, with great definition, delineation and freshness, more transparent to the terroir, more about the place than the varietal.”
. . .
Meet owner and winemaker Dominik Huber and taste a selection of the wines from regional to single vineyard @honestgrapes 'Meet the Grower' online tasting on Thursday 25th February.

Unwinding this Friday with the Naranjo from González Bastías: a vibrant orange wine from the heart of the Maule Valley, Chile 🍊
.
Made from a blend of Torontel, Moscatel, and Pais, the fruit is macerated with skins for 60 days in the traditional style of this region. Despite its relatively long skin-contact, this wine exhibits wonderful finesse in its flavour and structure 👌
.
The nose is aromatic, with delicate notes of peach and white flowers. The palate is light and fresh, with a well-balanced texture – body without too much grip. A killer pairing with spicy food, sweet and sour dishes, and for the bolder foodies among us, desserts 😋

Beatriz Herranz takes Verdejo seriously; she has put her heart and soul into getting to know this grape. It all started in 2010 when she gathered some friends, a van full of Verdejo grapes and produced her first vintage. Her project, Barco del Corneta, is based in La Seca, Castilla y León, where she works with young vines at high altitudes, producing wines of striking freshness and depth of flavour. The aim is an authentic expression of the grapes and the land.
. . .
You'll find Cucú - her vibrant Verdejo bursting with citrus zest, bitter melon and minerals at the following indie wine rockstars ☄️ @unwinedsw17 @unwinedse1 @cave.bristol @iron_and_rose @didiandfranc @vinoveroleigh

🚨NEW PRODUCER ALERT🚨 Fresh from Chile, meet

🚨NEW PRODUCER ALERT🚨 Fresh from Chile, meet Viña González Bastías 🥳
.
Old vines, traditional agriculture, a love story 😏 … our newest Chilean producer has it all!
.
José Luis Gómez Bastías is the 5th generation of his family to cultivate vineyards on the south bank of the Maule river. Unlike some of the larger landowners in Maule and Bio Bio, they haven’t grubbed up or re-grafted their 200-year-old País bush vines for more ‘popular’ international varietals. In 2013 Jose Luis met Daniela Lorenzo, an agronomist and viticulturalist in Santiago; she fell in love with the project and with Jose Luis! They now run the vineyards and winery together. Their objective is to live and work sustainably and look after their beautiful land and its history and traditions: from the music, the food, to the philosophy of respecting nature, they practice agriculture as a part of life and not just a business 🙌

Caught by the usual Friday night dilemma: what to

Caught by the usual Friday night dilemma: what to open?! It’s hard to pass up the Sus Scrofa from Cellar Pardas 🐗
.
Sus Scrofa means wild boar in Latin and as they live in the hills of the Alt Penedès, Celler Pardas have chosen it as the name of their youngest wine – a refreshing, vibrant red mad from the Sumoll grape. It has plenty of texture and tons of character, making it the perfect light winter red 😉
.
Celler Pardas is part of the new generation of producers in Catalonia. Their focus is on preserving the balance and health of their land, they farm organically without irrigation, and aim to work in partnership with nature.

Happy New Year and Happy #WineWednesday. In these

Happy New Year and Happy #WineWednesday. In these uncertain times we seek comfort in old favourites, like the beautiful Joven Mencia from Castro Ventosa.
.
Made from hand-harvested Mencía grapes from young vines, vinified in stainless steel and bottled unfined and unfiltered. This is an authentic expression of the variety, with focused tart fruit, a touch of smoke, and a very mineral-driven finish. Deliciously drinkable and great value as well.
.
Castro Ventosa was founded by the Perez family in 1752 and their descendants still run the show. Their wines are lovely examples of Mencía at its best, the result of careful and dedicated work in the vineyard and a mostly hands-off approach in the cellar. A great introduction to this often-overlooked variety.

✨BACK IN STOCK✨ – Táganan Blanco 2019 from Envínate
.
This #WineWednesday we welcome the return of this delicious and characterful wine, which captures the raw essence of Tenerife’s unique terroir 🌋
.
Táganan is the old local name for this rugged vineyard area, located on the north-eastern side of Tenerife, where vines are planted on primary volcanic rock on cliffs just above the Atlantic. This wine is a blend of the many different native white varieties, which are vinified separately, with some parcels undergoing skin contact. Smoky and salty with notes of lime and yellow apples, this wine is rich and complex on the palate, balanced by refreshing acidity and a persistent finish.

🎉 BACK IN STOCK 🎉 - Huré Frères Instantanée 2013
.
Well done everyone - we've made it to Friday! What better way to celebrate the end of the week than with a brilliant bottle of vintage bubbles? 🥂
.
This is a classic vintage cuvée serves as a reflection of the year. The grapes come from several Prémière Cru vineyards on the Montagne de Reims, which are vinified separately to provide precise elements for blending. The final cuvée is aged for six years on lees and bottled with 2-5 g/L of residual sugar. The resulting wine is rich and complex, with lovely yellow fruits and citrus on the nose, an elegant mousse and a refreshing, well-defined palate 🍾

Roccabella from Cinzia and Eugenio Bocchino, or 'baby Barolo' as we sometimes call it, comes from a single vineyard just outside the Barolo commune. It has all the aromatics, elegance, and purity of its more famous big brother, but is much more approachable in its youth.

Envínate make 3 Tenerife whites from Listán Blan

Envínate make 3 Tenerife whites from Listán Blanco (aka Palomino). The vineyards for Benje Blanco 🚨 BACK IN STOCK 🚨 are at 1000m, above the cloud line on the slopes of Mount Tiede, so the grapes receive more sunshine than their lower Taganana plots. To keep Benje fresh they started to experiment using flor yeast. Since 2017 they left some concrete tanks untopped, flor develops and consumes glycerol giving a slight lift and freshness to the wine.
. . . . .
All the wines share elements of granite minerality, volcanic notes, saltiness, chalky aromatics, and a linear citrus tension. The Benje Blanco has an extra degree of crystalline purity and a pithy, briny intensity, greater concentration and a denser, fleshier textural taste.

Trenzado is back in stock - this field blend of ma

Trenzado is back in stock - this field blend of mainly Listán blanco, plus native grapes, takes its name from the trellis system unique to the Canary Islands: “el cordon trenzado”, where the vine’s branches grow together in a long plait.
. . . . .
Wild, distinctive and thirst-quenching with beautiful texture - it's more about the basalt soils of the Orotava Valley than fruit.

With Christmas around the corner you might want to

With Christmas around the corner you might want to treat yourself to some luxe bubbles. 🍾 2012 was a top vintage in Champagne, known for healthy rich fruit and racy acidity. Robert Moncuit, with vineyards in Grand Cru Chardonnay territory Le Mesnil-sur-Oger - also home to prestige bottlings Salon and Krug's Clos de Mesnil - is a real insider secret. 🥂 It's drinking beautifully now but has the bones to last.

You know that a wine grown in a place like this is

You know that a wine grown in a place like this is going to be singular. La Era - named after local birds that live around the vineyards - is expressive, aromatic and floral. A bright and elegant example of a high altitude Malbec.
. . . . .
Vinedos de Alcohuaz is located at 1,800m in the Elqui Valley. Carved out of the granitic mountains, where the sun beats down, the stars shine brilliantly and it barely rains 30cm per year. These are pure mountain wines that speak eloquently of their home.
