Two dots on a map • New Zealand and Spain •
Diametrically opposite yet utterly connected
Grava • making wine here (and there) •
We taste with our eyes, our nose, our mouth but sound and touch are elements that enhance our sensory experience • A wine tastes different in a glass than it does in a ceramic cup. It is the sensation of touch that changes your experience • Malolactic fermentation in a barrel sounds like snap, crackle, pop. It indicates a natural shift in the wine • A healthy, diverse ecosystem sounds like the hum of bees, birdsong and wind through different leaves. An indication organic life is allowed to live there • The undeniable sound of a constant crunch under foot reveals a terroir of stony gravel. A flavour to be found expressed in a wine • This is our Grava •
