Description
Finally! After years of contact, they are finally in the Netherlands, the beautiful wines of Emilie Mutombo. Originally from Brussels but living for years in Bonastre, Penedès. She is good friends with Massimo and Antonella from Partida Creus, where she got the chance to make her first wine in 2017. Three years later, she started making more wines from her own vineyards, 2 hectares with 50 to 70-year-old vines, think of Parellada, Sumoll, Xarello, Ull de Llebre, Trepat. These wines are very limited!
