Vinyes Tortuga
Magic Potion 2021
Crafted with a 12-hour maceration on skins and hand-destemmed Cabernet Sauvignon, this sparkling pét nat is all about balance and charm. The fermentation is carefully bottled to preserve a touch of residual sugar, resulting in a vibrant, fruit-forward profile. Sweet yet refreshing, it’s an unfiltered, natural wine that’s as fun as it is thoughtful —and lives perfectly up to its name.

Vinyes Tortuga
Vinyes Tortuga is Dido & Jurriaan Morsink, a couple from Amsterdam who have made wine literally all over the world. Eventually they settled down in Catalonia, Spain and purchased 9.5 hectares of vineyards in Alt-Empordà, making their first vintage with their own grapes in 2018. They also have the project of Negoce wines called Fruita Analogica.

Behind the Bottle
Dido & Jurriaan have worked for big industrial companies as well as for small boutique wineries but it was their time with Joan Ramon Escoda that really changed their approach to winemaking and introduced them to the world of natural wine. There they learned that in order to make good natural wine, they learned that the focus needed to be on the vineyard, working as naturally as possible to produce high quality grapes.
