What’s being poured

Feats of clay – growers from Georgia, Italy, Spain and US (amongst others) working with terracotta pots to hold and shape their wine

Orange wines – over 50 examples of orange and skin contact wines – some provocative, others less so!

Altitude – mountain wines from vineyards at 1,000 m including some of the highest in Europe.

Extreme terroir – from vines grown on sand dunes to those perched precariously on the footslopes of volcanoes

Grape variety is the spice of life – dozens of rare and unusual autochthonous grapes

Animal traction – using horses and oxen to plough the vineyards

Biodynamics – exemplary farming in tune with the environment and the rhythms of nature
