Pago de los Capellanes web site on Laus Award short list

Ribero del Duero D.O. winery Pago de los Capellanes has recently launched their new web site.

The site has reputedly been short-listed for recognition at the Laus Awards. This will be the 36th year of the Barcelona graphic design and visual communication awards; the theme this year is "Death to Ugliness". I'll drink to that!

The Pago de los Capelllanes site was designed and created by Grapa with English translations by my company, Manfatta.

And by the way, the wines are superb!

Just a friendly helper. I went to the site and read this abou thte first wine: "Slow and relaxed without addiction of bacteria, "

Also while the site is visually nice, it's a pain that they have music with no volume control. I find music on a site tends to be one of the first things to make me close a browser window if I'm just surfing.

Just my 2 cents...

Thanks Ryan,

The text you noted referred to the malolatic fermentation of the wine which has not been accelerated. The text in Spanish coincides on this wording, which is how the winery choose to present the technical details.

Steven, hello. A non-related query - couldn't find 'contacts'. How is 'natural' wine scene in spain, cf France / Italy? Are there producers on natural ferment, no new oak, less sulphur, orgnic-ish farming? Would lobe to know. I miss Masia Barril!
Thanks, David
