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, […]

October Wine Month: the Costas in the spirit of the vendimia

At The Sound Of The Costa, October is all about wine. Along the Costa Blanca and the Costa del Sol, the vendimia – the grape harvest – marks the moment when summer comes to an end and the winemakers begin their craft. For locals, it is more than an agricultural tradition: it is a celebration of gathering, collaboration and pride. With this introduction we kick off October as Wine Month […]

From fig to almond: the Spanish flavours of early autumn

Summer on the Costa Blanca may feel endless, but if you look closely, you’ll notice a change. Evenings turn cooler, the sun sets a little earlier, and new colours and scents appear at the markets. September marks the transition — from the exuberance of summer to the calm and richness of autumn. And in Spain, you taste it first on your plate: the Spanish flavours of early autumn. Figs: sweetness […]

Don Panchito: the Dutch shop in Albir

Like many others, I do it almost daily here on the Costa Blanca — driving with the windows down. From Moraira to Calpe along the coast, a stretch of the N332, through the Mascarat tunnel, and then joining the car procession through Altea on the way to Albir. But always: Costa Blanca Radio on. Sometimes just as background, sometimes because there’s that one track that makes you unconsciously press the […]

Late summer in Spain: long evenings and village squares full of life

Late August holds a certain magic. The hottest days are behind you, but the sun is still generous, and the evenings feel longer than ever. The rush of peak tourist season begins to fade, while life on the streets somehow feels even more vibrant. It’s the time when you truly discover the essence of late summer in Spain — without the frantic pace of high season. Village festivals and processions […]

From grape to thirst-quencher: the first harvest from the Spanish vineyard

The scent of ripe grapes carries a hint of impatience — as if they’ve been whispering for weeks, “come, pick me.” In the late summer on the Costa Blanca, the moment arrives. The harvest begins in the Spanish vineyard. It’s the time when the sun still blazes by day, but the evenings soften, and the vineyard turns into a hive of pickers, crates, and humming tractors. Earlier this year, I […]

The taste of summer evenings: cooking with fire on the Costa Blanca

I’ll admit it straight away: I’ve been quiet for a while. Summer did something to me. It all got a bit too hot — literally, but also figuratively. No new restaurants, no discoveries, no recipes. Just long evenings on the terrace, watching the sun slowly dip behind the mountains. And somehow, it’s always the fire that gets me going again. Because on the Costa Blanca, summer doesn’t just mean beaches […]

From seed to flavour – my month in the kitchen garden, told in six plates

When you plant a seed, flavour isn’t the first thing on your mind. You wonder if it will sprout. If it’ll survive the heat. If you’ll remember to water it in time. And yet, it’s that very seed that, in June — the kitchen garden month — slowly turns into scent, colour, and eventually: food. My June came without recipes. Without shopping lists. Without plans, even. Just a garden, a […]
