The Owl & The Dust Devil wines are inspired by two natural wonders at Remolinos Vineyard
In the tranquil environment of Remolinos Vineyard a group of Lechuza owls have made their home. Perched atop vineyard posts, they keep a watchful eye over the vines, protecting against pests – both real and imagined! Throughout the growing season a mystical battle unfolds. ‘Remolinos’, or whirlwinds, arise, their spiral forms, mischievously weave their way through the vineyard. Catching sight of the swirling dust, the owls take flight in chase, until the dust devils disappear into thin air. The owls then return to their watching posts, satisfied that their precious vines are safe once again! Little do the owls realize that the dust devils play an equally important role in protecting our vineyard. Their airflow defends our vines from spring frosts and keeps our grapes dry and cool during the summer.
This intricately woven scene between two natural wonders, the winged predator and the wind, helps make our Remolinos Vineyard so distinctive and The Owl & the Dust Devil wines so exceptional.

The Owl & The Dust Devil Icon Blend
This wine shows off the quality of our Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon whilst shining a light on the rare varieties of Petit Verdot, Tannat and Cabernet Franc which form a third of this blend.
In contrast to Decero Amano, which is famed for its elegance and layers of ethereal complexity, The Owl & The Dust Devil Icon Blend seeks to maintain a silky profile whilst allowing the tannic and intense varieties of Petit Verdot and Tannat to contribute a rich, more muscular, presence at the core of the wine.
