Mixtura

Gutier Seijo

Mixtura is the ideology of Gutier Seijo and is based on the search and preservation of old vineyards and vines in Spanish Galicia. The vineyards can be found in various designations of origin such as Bierzo, Valdeorras, Ribeiro and Rias Baixas. Gutier has his cellar in a former workshop for sculptors built in the 1950s. The building stood empty for 40 years until Gutier built his cellar and studio here. A unique place where unique wines are made. The aging of the wines is done on old wooden foeders as well as on concrete and old barriques. Read more about Gutier Seijo's unique project on his website: www.mixturaw.com


Italian Wines

Many serious and extremely special wines are made in Italy. It is perhaps the wine country with the greatest diversity of wines and grapes. From the far north to the heel, wines are made from many diverse, often autochthonous, grape varieties. Wine is part of the country's culture and a meal without wine is unthinkable here. Italian wine regions such as Piemonte, Tuscany, Friuli and Abruzzo are just a few of the unique wine regions that can be found in the country.


Italian red wine

The main grapes for red wine in Italy are Nebbiolo and Sangiovese without wanting to discredit another grape variety. Nebbiolo is the grape variety of Piemonte and great Italian wines such as Barolo and Barbaresco are made from this grape variety. Sangiovese is mainly planted in Tuscany, the Chianti region and Brunello di Montalcino. But not only these two wines, in recent years there has been a lot of attention for the Super-Tuscans. Wines from often international grape varieties such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah.


Italian White Wine

White wines are of course made throughout the country, but the most important areas for white wine are Friuli and Alto Adige. Two wine regions in northwestern Italy. Here, Italian wine is made from well-known grape varieties such as Sauvignon, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay, but also from lesser-known varieties such as Ribolla Giala, Friulano and Riesling. Vermentino is often the basis for white wines from Tuscany, and in Piedmont there are also fine examples of the Chardonnay grape.


Italian sparkling wines

In addition to the still wines, Italy is of course known for the sparkling wines that are made in Lombardia, of course, but also in the region of Friuli Venetia. In Franciacorta, chardonnay, pinot nero and pinot biancio form the basis of sparkling wines made with the classic second fermentation in the bottle. We offer you several sparkling wines from Italy, most of which are certified organic and are perfect as an aperitif or as an accompaniment to various dishes.
