From its tip to its toe, the winemaking climate in Spain has never been more exciting. It's out with over oaked, flabby reds made from international varieties, and in with small growers working with respect for the environment, resurrecting indigenous varieties. These wines are fresh and lively, bursting with energy, and soon to be the stars of the future. Think Giro Ros, Mencia and Xarel-lo rather than Tempranillo or Cabernet Sauvignon. Explore what Spain has to offer, we think you'll be pleasantly suprised.
Bufadors Celler. Les Voranes, Corpinnat, Alt Penedes, 2019 (sparkling)
Xarel-lo and Macabeu
Aromatically it is fresh with aromas of white fruits such as apple and pear, with hints of fennel and white flowers, with creamy notes from contact with the lees. In the mouth it is subtle, but with breadth and density. A soft finish, with light notes of tannins. No added sulphites.
A Pie de Tierra, Gre2, Sirra de Gredos, 2022 (red)
100% Garnacha
The palate is medium-bodied with fine acidity, good freshness, and a saline finish. Very elegant, Pinot-esque Garnacha with a mineral backbone.
Dominio Del Urogallo, Field Blend Tinto, Asturias, 2020 (red)
Carrasquin, Verdejo Tinto, Albarin Tinto and Mencia.
A wonderful field blend of the oldest hillside parcels of vines in Francisco's stunningly beautiful plot in Cangas. Low yields, judicious use of oak and new technology are harnessed to allow these native varieties to sing.
