What is a natural wine?
La Cuvée de Susana is one of our natural wines. Natural wine is the result of ethical viticulture, spontaneous fermentation. Without intervention and without sulphites. ONLY GRAPE.
Quality of the wine La cuvée de Susana
The cuvée is the amount of wine that is produced at a time in a tank. In this sense, we can say of an oenologist that he has made a certain number of vintages of wine and that the barrels are or are not from the same cuvée.
We call “tête de cuvée” (or “wine head”) the wine made from the first vintages of a quality vintage.
Bobal 2020 of the Barranco de Morte
Lost Bobales recovery project. Lands of the Barranco de Morte.
The soft glow of sunrise in the barranco de Morte, still imprinted in my memory, recalls the story of a young vineyard, where animals, plants, men and magical creatures lived in peace and harmony. They protected each other and slept next to the shade of a large hundred-year-old holm oak. Now the vines die, their arms dry up and their trunks twist.
Only with effort and affection do its buds grow again and its fruits become wine again.
Spontaneous fermentation with wild yeasts.
During the elaboration no additives have been used, it may contain natural sediments.
