Brutal '20

In 2016, New Zealanders Mike Shepherd and Alex Craighead decided to form Artesano Vintners Spain. Alex, owner of Don and Kindelli Wines in Nelson, New Zealand, and Mike, winemaker in Barcelona, wanted to take advantage of the incredible resources that can be found in Catalonia. After obtaining organic grapes from Conca de Barberà and Priorat, and finding a small space in the Bodega La Boella, they made their first range of two wines: 'La Benjamina', a passionate ancestral and 'Parellatxa', a light red made with Parellada and Garnatxa. Their wines are small batches (1200 bottles in total), without added sulphites, wild yeasts and without clarification or filtration.

Description: Funky orange wine. Brutal” was born of Laureano Serres and Joan Ramon Escoda and their passion for raw wine. The concept was simple - anyone could make wine under Brutal!!! the wine just had to be zero/zero, no input in the vineyard, none in the cellar, and only a single barrel. These wines are an experiment, an open-source label to inspire winemakers and wine fans alike. Expect wild crazy flavours.
