Treat yourself or your beloved ones with special summer boxes!

Here is one of our starts, hero of deliveries: Albariño Marieta, young, fresh and fun. It is the first semi-dry Albariño ever produced! The wine has a very peachy nose with notes of ripe apple and melon. The taste is nutty, with citrus notes. Best summer choice.

Don't forget that you can sign up for our wine boxes on our website but as well by simply PMing us: we will guide you through all the process.

Off to a wine tasting?🍷

Honestly, you can use any glass, but if you want to enjoy the wine better, read this.
Wine glass can change the way the wine smells and tastes.
Having a special glass for every type of wine might seem a bit too much and it is too much. Go universal!
Choose a middle-sized glass, a bit smaller than for reds, and a bit bigger than for Chardonnays. Just ask for a universal wine glass at any wine store.
Almost every producer now has this type of glass, so it's not that hard to find. Just remember 1 rule: the smaller the glass, the harder it is to extract aromas. Some wines need a bit of oxygen to open up, but some don’t. So, yes, universal is the new black for wine tastings!
Now that you have the right glass, go and get your monthly subscription box to sip back and enjoy!

Still think that screw cap means bad and inexpensive wine?
Nope. Wrong as you can be!
A bit of history:

⁃ was created in 1964 by a French company (for Australian winery Yalumba) and only patented in the late 1970s
⁃ nowadays a major choice for Australian an New Zealand producers (no matter wine style or price), but other countries follow

Why is it good:
1. TCA (also known as cork disease) is off the table, in most cases your wine will be perfectly fine
2. Longer wine life: wines under the screw cap age longer and it’s good
3. Arguably (depends on the producer), but a bit cheaper than natural cork
4. What we all like: easy to open. You don’t need anything but your hand and your will☺️

But, have to warn you, please save nature and don’t put them in the trash. Aluminum can be recycled, just remove the plastic if any🙏🏻

Cheers!

Take a peek at our pick!

Another one of the "heroes" from the White Wine Box is revealed*!

Straight from runway, a Fresh French (not to be mistaken with Fresh Prince).

What we really love about this one:
a perfect chilling aperitif (exactly what we need these days)
lots of fruit notes, dominated by peach and lychee
a perfect companion for fish or seafood dinner

In case you've searched for something with a twist: this is a mix of Colombard and Ugni Blanc, influenced by a cool breeze from the mountains and a fresh air provided by forests.

*please take a note that we reveal the hero of the past Wine Boxes, but you are free to order them directly by messaging us.

Take a peek at our pick!

One of the "heroes" of the White Wine Box is revealed*!

This guy is French, from a Côtes du Rousillon region. Grenache Blanc, Chardonnay and Roussanne grape varietals all together make a honeyed, big and lush wine to sip and enjoy!

What we particularly like about this wine?
👍🏻 rich and exotic nose with beesway and orange marmalade notes
👍🏻 undeniable minerality
👍🏻 fruit cocktail style

For those who are a bit tired of full-bodied Chardonnays and who deserve a little party (don't we all?).

*please note that we reveal “the hero” of the past months Wine Boxes, but you are free to order them directly by messaging us.

Wine is an alcoholic beverage made of fermented wine grapes. Wine can be produced with any fruit, but most is made with a specific species of grape called Vitis vinifera.
