"...a passionate proponent of distinctive regional styles and traditional methods, who avoids wines that have been subjected to the blurring influence of internationalization."

- Eric Asimov, New York Times

 

Jos� Pastor Selections is the source for wines from organic vineyards that favor the use of indigenous yeast and minimum filtration. a tireless advocate of handcrafted wines made from Spain's indigenous grape varieties in classic and up-and-coming regions. Since its inception he has remained steadfast, carefully choosing small producers that create wine in the most natural way possible while maintaining the identity of a region.  All fruit is hand harvested.  Most bodegas ferment by means of indigenous, ambient yeasts and where oak is applicable, it is always judicious and never overshadows the regional purity of fruit.  Many are also fermenting/ageing wines in concrete, large, old oak vats, or amphorae.  He has cornered the market on fine wines from the Canary Islands, a Spanish archipelago seventy miles off the Moroccan coast, where wine has been grown for more than five hundred years. He has helped resurrect the red wines of Galicia and offered a window into what terroir driven wines from Rioja and Ribera del Duero could taste like.
