Powerglow Wine | Alanna Lagamba & Pauline Baumberger
POWERGLOW is a natural wine project from German-based female wine producers Alanna Lagamba (Vin de Lagamba) and Pauline Baumbergs (Glow Glow Wines). Originally made for Danish wine shop VinSuperNaturel, the wines of Powerglow are now accessable to all and are made in the Rheinhessen region in Germany.
POWERGLOW - a project by two awesome powerfrauen!
POWERGLOW is project of special wines from a very exciting collaboration between female winemakers Pauline Baumberger Brand (Glow Glow Wines) and Alanna Lagamba (Vin de Lagamba, known for her wine Frauenpower)! Pauline and Alanna are not just great examples of real Powerfrauen in the natural wine world, but are also very close friends, and together with their partners Jonas (from Brand Bros) and Martin (from Marto Wines) can often be seen laughing and dancing together.
The making of POWERGLOW
For their first vintage together, the two set out to create a wine that feels and drinks like a Gamay, without actually using the grape variety. To make this happen, they blended two grapes - a carbonic maceration of Portugieser from Alanna and a Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) from Pauline. They were then combined and fermented at Weingut Baumberger to make their glou-glou style POWERGLOW 2020. With their second vintage, Pauline and Alanna felt more comfortable with the process and wanted to experiment some more - so they set out to make a wine that neither the Glow Glow nor Vin de Lagamba lines would produce on their own. The resulting wine is a white cuvée made from Pauline's skin-fermented Müller-Thurgau and fresh Riesling must from Alanna. The grapes were fermented together at Weingut Wörner in Flonheim (where Vin de Lagamba wines are vinified).
