HABLAMOS DE VINO CON RAFA, DE LA NATURAL WINE.

WE TALK ABOUT WINE WITH RAFA, ABOUT NATURAL WINE.

by Josep Basora

Talking about wine with Rafa is not just about bottles. It’s about time, decisions, intuition, and pleasure. About how wine can be a way of being in the world.

Rafa is one of those people who understand wine as a living language. From La Natural Wine, he advocates for an honest, conscious, and unpretentious way of making wine, where each wine explains the place it comes from and the hands that have accompanied it. For him, natural wine is not a trend or a label, but a logical consequence: to intervene just enough, respect the process, and let the grape find its way.

During the conversation, we talked about vineyards, necessary mistakes, slow learnings, and the importance of drinking without fear. About choosing wines that do not aim to please everyone, but that connect deeply with those who understand them. Wines that invite you to pause, to share a table, and to extend the after-dinner conversation.

At La Cofra, we recognize ourselves in that perspective. In the idea that wine is not explained from a pedestal, but from closeness. That it is better enjoyed when accompanied by conversation, curiosity, and people with whom to share it. That’s why we like to create space for gatherings like this: because coming together around a glass is also a way to build community.

We will continue talking about wine. And, above all, we will keep listening to those who make it possible.
