The Sánchez Vizcaíno family’s interest in organic agriculture was piqued after the emergence of family health problems brought about by the chemicals used in standard farming practices. They went on to establish theCortijo El Cura winery in 1998 with the stated intention of developing and offering organic wines. The winery, which has since gained popularity, lies within the Sierra Nevada National Park, close to the Mediterranean city of Almería in Andalusia, Spain’s southernmost region.
Nearly 3,400 km north of the Cortijo El Cura winery, the Norwegian capital Oslo and its restaurant scene now host Vino Veritas, an eco-gastrobar that combines the two distinct cultures of Norway and Spain. As part ofCortijo El Cura, Vino Veritas specialises in sustainable organic wines and foodstuffs (think tapas) provided by the Sánchez winery, farm and allied small businesses. Although at first, Spanish tapas in Oslo might seem a somewhat unexpected venture, the combination of styles provides a welcoming contrast for visiting patrons.
