Alberto and Gabriel Sanchis began in 2013 with the goal to bring the local terroir and local (and some forgotten) grapes together, in harmony with the environment, to make a winery that offers a taste of their home. Gabriel studied design before he made a giant career shift and began his life in oenology.

most prestigious zones are dedicated to Barbera
plantings. (The very opposite holds true in
the Langhe, where Nebbiolo reigns supreme.)

anger and the flashing cover drives of the local champions in 1950. Sadly, the ground closed in 1996. Soon after, Jim Barry purchased the 30 acre property

These villages are located directly at the convergence of the Atlantic and the Mediterranean climatic influences, which mold the character of the vintages. This unique soil and climate also lend a certain austerity and structure to Ostatu wines, which differentiates them from the Rioja wines of other subzones. Ostatu is pure Alavesa mountain wine, born of the tension and energy of an extreme climate.

Sauvignon Blanc
MINIMAL INTERVENTION BETWEEN VINE AND WINE
We make wines we feel are honest and representative rather than a copy of a wine from somewhere else. Wine that reflects the true character of the Blind River terroir of the vineyard where we make our home. Wine that adds texture and balance to the intensity of the world famous Marlborough Sauvignon Blancs.
Our belief is that winemaking starts in the vineyard. Fruit carefully tended and managed using sensible, sustainable methods requires minimal intervention from the winemaker for our terroir to show its potential. The result is wines of quality with unique flavour profiles - wines with a freshness and minerality not found elsewhere in Marlborough.
- Unculin Mencia (A90)
- Jose Antonio GarcÃa and his wife Julia Peña GarcÃa (together they are G²) are at the forefront of the next-generation of vignerons in Bierzo, leading the change towards wines of place and definition. Their familial roots in Bierzo are fundamental to them, as they do all of the work in the vineyards themselves. Jose’s mother is a native of Valtuille de
Abajo, and his father is a native of Corullón. Together, Jose and Julia’s families have owned vineyards in Bierzo for generations, providing wines that would become the backbone of other famous blends, but never bottling for
themselves. Like many families who left the countryside for better opportunities in the cities, Jose spent his formative years in Barcelona where he worked in restaurants and gained valuable perspective and experience with fine wine. In 2009 Jose returned to recuperate his family's vineyard holdings in the tiny village of Valtuille de Abajo, which is also home to his friend and former mentor Raúl Pérez, where Jose made wine following enology school.
