Bodega Cota 45, Miraflores UBE, Spain 2021- Organic, Vegan
Very small production from a parcel of old Palomino vines on Albariza soil with a high percentage of marine fossils. Aged in old Manzanilla barrels, the focus is very much on terroir rather than biological or oxidative ageing. The result is a sherry-like wine, aged under flor but not fortified, it is fresh and easy to drink with intense floral aromas, citrus, ripe apple and delicate oxidative notes.

L'Entremetteuse, Four Skins Colchagua, Chile 2021 – Low Sulphites, Skin Contact
A blend of 35% Viognier, 33% Roussanne, 27% Marsanne, 5%Semillon. The grapes are destemmed and put in flextank eggs without the addition of sulphites. In one egg there is a co-fermentation of Marsanne/Roussanne/Viognier and the Sémillon is fermented separately in it's own egg. The final result is a mixture of fruit, acidity and tannins that may surprise at first but gives a wine of great complexity. Great persistence on the palate.

Delinquente, Weeping Juan Pet-Nat, Australia 2021 – Organic, Vegan
Organic viticulture. Wild yeast fermentation in stainless steel, bottled under crown seal to finish ferment in the Petillant Naturel, lightly sparkling style.
Delicate sweet blueberry with hints of lime and sea salt. Almost raspberry candy-like but super dry, with great acidity and fine bubbles.

Domaine Les Hautes Noelles, Zoi Rouge, France 2020 – Organic, Low Sulphites
Merlot, Grolleau Noir and Cabernet Franc from stony sandy-clay loam over micaschist, 10-20 year old vines. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts. 15-18 months aging in an underground tank. Not filtered, not fined. 6,000 bottles made
Intense nose of red berry fruits and a light red iron minerality. On the palate there is great structure, volume and minerality that talks volumes of the saline terroir. Soft tannic notes round out this lovely red.
