Pedro began making wines in the green and lush Salnés Valley (located just west of Pontevedra in Galicia) in 2015, recovering abandoned vineyards in the area.
Eponymous with Chambolle, Ghislaine Barthod works around 6 hectares in this legendary part of Burgundy. While the plots are scattered and the soil varies, it mainly consists of limestone in different states. This, along with a multitude of other factors, contributes to the finesse and delicacy of the wines from Ghislaine. The average age of the vines on the Barthod estate is over 30 years old and yields are always modest since both vigorous pruning and occasional green harvest are practiced.
Ghislaine follows traditional methods of vinification which means partially destemmed bunches that undergo spontaneous fermentation. The coinciding maceration lasts for around 2 to 5 days depending on temperatures. After fermentation, the wines are racked into small barrels (a quarter new) and aged for about 20-24 months. These wines are absolutely ageworthy, but can also be drunk young. Here, you have a rare opportunity to thoroughly explore the terroir of this singular village.

The Cantalapiedra family has made wine from several generations in the municipality of La Seca, half an hour southwest of Valladolid in Castilla y Leon; heart of the Rueda appellation. There are records of the Cantalapiedras’ grape-growing dating to the 19th century, but the current version of the domaine can be traced directly to the year 1949, when the grandfather, Heliodoro, planted his first vineyard plot at young age of 15
