Els Bassots is a captivating skin-contact Chenin Blanc from Conca de Barberà. Made biodynamically at around 450 metres of altitude, the grapes benefit from a dry climate moderated by cool sea winds. They are harvested by hand and macerated on their skins for roughly ten days before fermenting with native yeasts in stainless steel. Afterward, the wine rests for about one year in neutral French oak barrels, without filtering or fining, and without added sulphites. This approach gives the wine a light golden hue, creamy texture, and bright citrus hints. Its lively acidity and subtle mineral notes linger on the palate, reflecting both the region’s clay-limestone soils and the winemaker’s gentle touch. Suitable for vegans and vegetarians, Els Bassots offers a distinctive Spanish take on a traditionally French grape, showing that Chenin Blanc can flourish beautifully under the Catalan sun.

Flamingo by Lammidia is a playful and refreshing natural wine from Abruzzo, made in a way that reflects both tradition and creativity. The grapes come from a 60-year-old vineyard in Pianella, where more than ten red and white varieties grow together in the same plot, a style of planting once common in the region. All the grapes are harvested at the same time – some perfectly ripe, others still fresh and crisp – creating a wine that balances fruit with lively tension. The winemaking follows Lammidia’s minimal-intervention philosophy: hand-destemmed grapes, a short three-day skin contact, spontaneous fermentation, and aging in fiberglass. No fining, filtration, or added sulphites are used, keeping the wine pure and vibrant. In the glass, Flamingo shows itself as a light red (sometimes seen as a deep rosé), with bright acidity, subtle cranberry-like fruit, and a gentle hint of black tea. Its low alcohol and refreshing profile make it a relaxed companion for afternoons, picnics, or simple meals. The name “Flamingo” captures its spirit—easy, summery, and a little unconventional for a red wine.
