philosophy
Before starting up Vides Singulares we asked ourselves several questions::
What is it that makes us enjoy our day-to-day life?
What can we do to achieve greater satisfaction with what we do?
What commitment can we make to our environment to help improve it?
From this reflection, a new life project is born.
A reunion with nature. A return to enjoying a job well done, but at the pace set by nature.
We want to continue rescuing unique vineyards, meaning those in special locations, somewhat abandoned by depopulation, but which have therefore preserved their essence of environment, landscape, and native varieties.
We seek to express our idea of making wine through the different places where we believe we can bring added value. Through our project we can improve the natural and social environment in which the vineyards are located.
The conjunction of our lifestyle and our way of wanting to approach the future, allow us to achieve professional and personal fulfilment together.
Vides Singulares does not only want to produce quality wines, respecting the environment of each vineyard to the maximum, but also to show how to enjoy the processes that are necessary to produce them.
For this reason, we have incorporated the project of rural accommodation in an 18th century Rectory House, where we have decided to establish our new home and a project of wine tourism where we intend to show more and better the process of wine production.
Maite:
“If I close my eyes, my mind travels to a vineyard in autumn, when the plant prepares to rest and be quiet. My senses are focused on the smell of wet bark, clean air, moss, and underbrush. My face enjoys some rays of sunshine, but the air is cold, which refreshes my mind and makes it fly. And it flies to the people who excite me and to the sensations that trap me. Viticulture and winemaking allow me to share some of these sensations”.
Raúl:
“After years of professional career, in a world that is increasingly globalized and going at a frenetic pace, I realized that I was not using my time enough to fully enjoy what I like most. All this rush to live, to accumulate goods, experiences, sensations, was summarized in many cases in a collection of photos, which perhaps one day, could serve to remember some moments of happiness. . . “.
