Our Story: The Beginning of La Cave Noire

Our Story: La Cave Noire When you stumble across a great bottle of natural wine, something happens. It is alive, unpredictable, and a little bit wild. That is what drew us in. La Cave Noire is more than a bar we are opening in Brighton & Hove. It is the result of two paths crossing. Meet Reza With a background in design and a love for atmosphere, Reza has always believed that spaces should tell stories. For him, wine is not just about taste. It is about the environment it creates, the feeling of gathering around a table, the energy of conversation, and the details that make a night unforgettable.

La Cave Noire: Quick Pour - Serragghia Bianco Zibibbo Vino Secco — 2023 (Italy) This one feels a little special. Not to take away from the others in the series, every bottle we feature earns its place, but this is the kind of wine we would open for a moment. A touch higher in price, yes, but worth it for the occasion. These bottles rarely stay on the shelf for long. If you see one, it is probably the last. That silver arrow label stops you in your tracks, the small 1/600 near the neck. We were curious from the start. Made by Gabrio Bini at Azienda Agricola Serragghia on the volcanic island of Pantelleria, just southwest of Sicily. 100 percent Zibibbo, fermented with native yeasts and macerated on skins for months in buried terracotta amphorae. No filtration, no additives, no shortcuts, a raw and expressive orange wine that mirrors the island’s rugged landscape. Notes of orange blossom, dried apricot, wild herbs, and sea spray.
