Instructor in the Deutsche Sommelerie, Guido Hube decided to change his life radically, to settle in Banyuls in order to produce wine beyond his preconceived notions and without any appreciable restrictions. On an area of just over 8 ha, he only produces a few thousand bottles a year. With a vengeance the rigid administrative corset, the constraints of ‘mutage’ (alcohol reinforcement), like avoiding the delimitation Banyuls / Collioure, the wines of Guido and Melanie Hube follow production protocols that may seem archaic, but are actually complex and demanding. The result, enclosed in eye-catching black bottles, cannot leave untouched. This new interpretation of the wines of the Côte Vermeille, as unique as it may be, can be attributed to the current renewal movement, which, full of freshness and ingenuity, is borne by traveled, idealistic winegrowers (from Japan, Denmark). We have the highest expectations in this wine-growing landscape with its unique potential.
