New top wine by Pablo Calatayud: a tribute to his team

This "Pebrella," as the wine is called, is the first in the "Ferrero & Senís" series.

He named his top wine after two of his team members. A true tribute to his colleagues and friends. I know few winemakers who can express their gratitude in such a way.

Article in De Standaard: Spanish wine breaks records!

For the first time in history, a Spanish wine estate has claimed the top spot on the Liv-Ex Power 100 List: Vega Sicilia!

This prestigious estate from Ribera del Duero demonstrates that global appreciation for Spanish fine wines continues to rise. As the official importer of Vega Sicilia in Belgium, we can't help but feel proud of this achievement!

The numbers speak for themselves: a 324% increase in trading volume and a 310% rise in sales value. With iconic wines like Unico, Vega Sicilia has truly earned its place on the world stage.

Artuke 2022: Pioneers of the new generation from Rioja

Rioja 'n' Roll! You have undoubtedly heard of this new generation of young winemakers from Rioja, known as “Rioja ’n’ Roll.”

What they all have in common is their dedication to working exclusively with old bush vines and biodynamic practices to produce authentic terroir-driven wines.

We now have the new 2022 vintages from Artuke in stock, and in this region as well, 2022 has proven to be a warm and bold year with excellent ratings.

Feliz Año!! 2025: A year full of Spanish wine!

2025: A year full of Spanish wine!

I just realized that I wrote over 150 mailings in 2024. We'll try to do at least the same in 2025!

Every day, I hear from satisfied wine enthusiasts who truly appreciate our mailings.

Spain remains an undiscovered gem for many wine lovers. They are, of course, familiar with the great French wines, and Italy is often at the top of their wish list.

But I notice that, for many, Spain is still a blind spot. At La Buena Vida, we aim to change that!

Heading towards 2025: our best wines of 2024!

2024 was an exceptional year for us: many wines, from entry-level to premium, received stellar scores. The proud top performer was Margalagua 2023 by Envínate in Tenerife, earning a perfect 100/100!

Spanish wines are more popular than ever among wine enthusiasts! We hope to continue this success in 2025.

We sincerely thank you for your trust and enthusiasm for Spanish wine.

Envínate strikes again ! Ook in Ribeira sacra topscores!

In 2023, everything the Envínate quartet undertook seemed to turn into pure liquid gold.

Their sublime wines from Tenerife are, of course, worth your attention. But in Atlantic Galicia, they also showcase the full extent of their talent.

For Christmas, we’re crossing borders: between Château Angélus and Château Figeac…

The Pingus from Bordeaux!

Did you know that Peter Sisseck, the creator of our renowned Spanish Pingus, also makes wine in Saint-Émilion?

We’ve managed to secure a small allocation of the 2019 and 2020 vintages, something we haven’t been able to achieve in nearly 10 years!

It’s even being compared to Figeac and Angélus, both priced at a multiple of this Rocheyron!

Envínate from Tenerife, the world’s highest-rated volcanic wines

History repeats itself.

Even in the 2021 vintage, this wine scored a perfect 100/100!

Envínate has recently joined not only the elite circle of 100-point wines in Spain but also the global list of wines that have achieved this perfect score twice across three consecutive vintages.

This is extremely rare, believe me!

They own some of the most beautiful and impressive vineyards in Tenerife, from the far north in Taganana to the southwest in Santiago del Teide.

Both their whites and reds rank among the most remarkable volcanic expressions for us.

La Buena Vida Podcast - Wijncast

Number 1 on the world's most important wine index!

News that normally lies completely outside our comfort zone. After all, this isn’t about tasting wine but about stock indexes and returns.

But this time, I felt it had to be shared! It’s no coincidence that we have been the distributor for Belgium for this top winery since 2008.

The star wines from our exclusive tasting this weekend

Number 1: Who else but Raúl Pérez to claim the most successful table of last weekend…

Number 2: Another great classic took the second prize for best table! Our most classic Ribera del Duero: Hnos Pérez Pascuas.
