Our story
Hi there, nice to meet you!
Our journey took us across the world, learning from the vines and the people who care for them. We traded predictability for adventure, comfort for creativity, and industry for intuition.
Now, rooted in the rugged hills of Empordà, we farm with the rhythm of nature, transforming grapes into living, breathing wines that pulse with energy. No additives, no filters. Just pure expression, bottled.
For us, wine isn’t a product. It’s a conversation between soil, sun, and soul. It’s music in a glass, an untamed melody shaped by the land and played by time. Every bottle tells a story of place, of passion, of the endless pursuit of something real.
This isn’t just winemaking. It’s our way of life.
Becoming winemakers
Owning a vineyard was always our shared dream. Originally from Amsterdam, we focused on building careers first, then planned to buy a vineyard and become winemakers. Jurriaan studied Engineering and later founded a travel agency for low-impact journeys to Southeast Asia.
Dido, researching natural winemaking for her master’s in Cultural Anthropology in South Africa, was inspired by the young Swartland winemakers. These winemakers, learning from others across the globe, eventually settled in Swartland to create their own wine.
Seeing this, we thought: why wait? Why not pursue our dream now, while we’re young? So, we took the leap. We traveled to South Africa, Chile, Australia, France, and Spain, doing internships in regions like Penedès, Priorat/Montsant, and Conca de Barberà. These experiences taught us not only the craft of winemaking but also how to live in harmony with the land.
Our dream was becoming a reality.
Our wines are natural, wild & free.
Our journey took us across the world, learning from vineyards big and small, until we found our home in Empordà. Here, we farm biodynamically, without additives or filtration, letting the grapes express themselves naturally.
Conventional wine can contain over 88 additives, we choose a different path. By nurturing living soils, sowing cover crops, and letting our sheep graze the vineyards, we create the healthiest grapes, ready to ferment on their own. No tricks, no shortcuts, just pure, vibrant wine. that pulses with energy.
For us, winemaking isn’t about control, but trust. It’s a conversation between soil, sun, and soul. Every bottle tells a story of passion, place, and the pursuit of something real.
