Other notes:
-
To visit this winery and sit down with Veronica and Nathaniel is to experience the poetry of human experience. From the chickens and goats roaming their fields to the countenance of Nathaniel and Verónica themselves, one feels as if they are within the writings of D.H. Lawrence when visiting this estate. They make wines from grapes that suffer, are given the bare minimum to survive and thus yield extremely expressive and utterly transparent sense of place.
