In Labastida and San Vicente, the vines worked harder than we did (and that\u2019s saying something!). Between cool winters, intense springs, and perfectly sunlit summers, our grapes reached maturity\u2014bursting with flavor and eager to tell their story in every wine.<\/p>\n\n<p>And speaking of stories, here comes Veravier La Piedad 2023, our flagship wine from Labastida. Elegant, refined, deep, personal, vibrant, and incomparable\u2026 and yes, a touch pretentious. <\/p>\n\n<p>The excitement is palpable as we head toward 2026: new markets, new challenges, and even more glasses to raise. Because if 2025 taught us anything, it\u2019s that wine carries joy and nourishes our humanity\u2026 and sometimes, it even laughs as it\u2019s being made\u2014and that is the greatest satisfaction of all.<\/p>\n\n<p>And now, dear readers, a question for you: if you could raise a glass with one iconic wine from your life, which would you choose\u2014and why? Don\u2019t worry, you can answer honestly\u2026 or invent an elegant excuse, the way we do when someone asks whether we drank the last bottle in the cellar.<\/p>\n\n<p>So here\u2019s the wrap-up: 2025 has filled our cups, 2026 promises surprises\u2026 and we\u2019re ready to toast with you\u2014even virtually on WhatsApp.<\/p>\n\n<p>Because our philosophy is that wine is meant to be drunk, felt, savored, and shared in an endless cycle\u2026 and a good toast should always come with a smile.<\/p>\n\n<p>More surprises are on the way, including the publication of a collection of personal poetry\u2014the result of a long journey\u2014written in the pauses between vinifications, guided by inspiration. I will continue shaping these captivating landscapes that fill our souls and invite us into a calm, unhurried reading\u2014one I will accompany with a glass of wine, like a pianist who, after caressing every passage, raises a toast once the piece is complete.<\/p>\n\n<p>Long life and health to you for 2026!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2025 has been a year that truly deserves a toast\u2026 or five!
