It was Naturala Vinis 2 in L 'Anima vi . The quote was from five in the afternoon, free and when I arrived at about half past six the thing was packed. Many people, euphoria and shirts at 10 euros. My first contact was with Joan who immediately summoned me to try not to let some little things that were around and that would not otherwise ever prove. Thanks for your guidance.
Here is a core value of this type of encounter: what tests only test here and spend a unique and memorable environment for wines that are well integrated into your lifestyle. On the other hand we must recognize that it does not happen every day that rivers overflowing our glasses of wine for free, for the love of wine and the conviction in a means of dissemination. Chapeau to growers for the effort and Benoît and Nuria by the organization and maintenance of revelry within reasonable parameters ;)
So much there: the party, promoting fun and wild. But do not get confused, because the stress cycle is completed when the wine lover can buy, take home and enjoy slow.
From what is missing here: let's get in the shoes of the 200 people who passed through Naturala Vinis and those who did not come but will learn because friends are going to count. What chance do you buy these wines that feed your thirst? Passed around wine lovers who live scattered in the four corners of Barcelona and believe me it was difficult if not impossible to buy a bottle in the middle of the bacchanal. There was no quiet space it takes to make a good buy.
Everyone goes home feeling good, having discovered wines and winemakers, having shared the joy and thirst for drink and therefore opening a spiritual space and money to start creating some bodeguita with these wines. Where to buy?
Well if you're not by Gracia darn fried. Nowhere else in the city where to find them. I have the feeling that the supply of these wines is scattered, diffused among a few restaurants and shops and in very low amounts at each site, what you can do that while the grower feels that sell what little they do and that way is is paying the bills, your wine, your brand and your efforts are lost in oceans of wine of all kinds that appear on restaurant menus and on the shelves of stores, usually without much chance of establishing a conversation with the consumer .
As important as creating a need, in this case, feed the thirst for natural wine is quench or try, if you are not wasting much energy and missed opportunities to realize a market around a passion. Me for example I live across the city, I'm too lazy (excuse Benoît) having to take the subway and walking five blocks to reach the only store that not only the wines but is the person who can sell them. And then having to re-charged, undoing these streets, one metro trip and arrival to the house. And by now I think no one can doubt my taste and my appreciation for these growers and their creations.
If I today as a wine lover, was considering starting a business as a work itself, as an investment because I have some savings, and improved my quality of life, and I would not hesitate to work up a business to satisfy this thirst. I am sure that further points of sale throughout the Spanish territory, because there are more wine lovers hungry nature of what at first might think. And to show successes are worth the public and we are telling.
As for other outlets, fundamental tenets, essential, which are the restaurants, I think it could be very good and take a step towards professional maturity to think about creating the First Natural Professional Exhibition of Wine, for wine professionals also hunger for new and better stories to tell your customers and discover the products themselves are likely not find out too.
Is there anyone out there who want to share ideas?
Querdios friends, potential entrepreneurs and super-power, a hug and good wine,
salut :))
