The wines of Azimut are the bohemian Catalonian you met while backpacking through the south of Spain—rustic, characterful and intriguing. They have a keen focus on sustainability and exercise this not only through their farming and cellar practices, but even in their supply chain, choosing, for example, to source their bottles from a manufacturer less than 100km from the bodega.

The pink sibling to their white Cava. Like diving headlong into a pool of macerating summer berries. An absolutely incredibly price-quality ratio!
