Playlist’s Song Pairing:
Devendra Banhart, a blend of Venezuelan zest and American soul, weaves a tapestry of love and longing in "Mi Negrita." Like the Ca N'Estruc BI Garnatxes, a wine rooted in the diverse soils of Spain, Banhart's music finds its grounding in the complex intersections of his dual heritage. His song, an unapologetic expression of affection, mirrors the bold authenticity of the Grenache duo that makes up the Garnatxes.
As you savor the earthy notes of this biodynamically farmed wine, let Banhart's "Mi Negrita" transport you to a world where love is as raw and beautiful as nature itself. The song's intricate melodies, coupled with the wine's balanced duality, create an experience that's as cool as it is profound.

Ca N'Estruc BI’s Garnatxes is a stylish twist on the typical Grenache - or Garnatxa in Catalan. Anna Martí Pitart, who, alongside her father Francisco, is the heart and soul of this operation. She’s all about paying homage to her Catalan heritage while allowing her wine to flaunt its singular charisma. This rosé, pressed from vines deeply rooted at the base of Montserrat mountain, is pure bottled sunlight, a sip of Catalonia’s vibrant energy.
With its audacious dance between traditional and bold, think of this rosé as if Miles Davis decided to compose a Catalan Symphony. It riffs on the palate with a duet of red cherry and raspberry, while a touch of minerality keeps the melody grounded. This bottle is your summer anthem encapsulated - cheeful, radiant, and just a little bit cheeky. With its universal appeal, this wine doesn't just join the party, it becomes the party.
