BonAmb sommelier Enrique García Albelda – a life devoted to wine and emotion
The air in BonAmb’s wine cellar carries a quiet serenity. A cool, gentle stillness lingers between the wooden barrels, as if even time itself breathes more softly here. Along the wall, rows of bottles stand like soldiers at rest. Gently, BonAmb’s warm-hearted sommelier – a man with the calm passion of someone who truly lives his craft – lifts a bottle, studies the label as though greeting an old friend, and says softly: “The best wine is the one that moves you emotionally.” In that single sentence lies the essence of Enrique García Albelda’s life story, the sommelier of BonAmb.

Spain’s forgotten supergreens: chardas, grelos and more
For this story, we step outside our familiar Costa regions. Spain is known for paella, tapas and jamón, but if you look more closely at the markets and kitchen gardens, you’ll discover a world of supergreens that are barely known outside the country. Of course, we all know the artichoke, which I wrote about earlier this year. But here, I’m talking about vegetables that were once the daily staple of farmers and labourers.

Cleaning in Spain: the trick is in what you don’t do
In August, I felt you really shouldn’t be cleaning. Too early, too hot, too much of a waste to sweep the summer sand out the door already. Now, a few weeks later, the evenings are darker, the heat more bearable, and the moment seems right. But even now, I believe the art of cleaning in Spain lies mainly in what you don’t do.

What your skin needs in late summer: the power of slowing down, softening and caring
September. Life may be settling back into a sense of normal, but your skin sees it differently. It’s still carrying hours of sun in its pores, salt on its cheeks, and perhaps a touch of dryness, pigmentation or tightness. In short: late summer is when your skin needs some extra care. I still remember years ago, standing on the beach after a sun-soaked summer, touching my face and thinking: wow — this feels like leather.
