Ganze Traube from Kolfok is an "experimental" Blaufränkisch that comes from a cool east-facing slope. Whole bunches were stomped by feet in an open fermentation cask. After a 5-day fermentaion the grapes were pressed into one 650l barrel of Austrian oak. No sulfur was added.

Viña de Los Pinos is named after Cantariña main vineyard. Made of mostly Mencia, it contains a small proportion of other grape varieties including some white. These add to the characteristics & complexity of the wine. Lovely dark, plummy fruit, with wild berries & florals.

Barbaresco Classico from Fontanabianca comes from 300m above sea level. This 100% Nebbiolo is from clay-limestone soils near Nieve. Fermented in stainless steel, but aged in large wooden barrel for 12-15 months. A modern and fresh style, very drinkable in its youth.

Sin Blanca from El Hato y elGarabato: 84 to 90 % Juan Garcia, this blend is usually 'topped-up' with a little Bruñal, and tiny amounts of others such as Rufete, Tempranillo and Bastardo. A rich, but fresh red, with purity and honesty. A great pairing for grilled lamb or game.
