The brief

Isabel works between the laboratory and the vineyard: pharmacy and microbiology first, then quality control, then a master's in viticulture and oenology in Montpellier and Udine. From Thuir, in the Roussillon, she brings that science to everyone who makes, sells and loves wine. Her site had to speak to estates and wine shops as clearly as to someone booking a tasting, in Catalan, English, French and Italian.

The idea

Look closely, the way she does. The homepage opens on a chromatogram, the round print a drop of soil leaves on filter paper, drawn live; it also reads as a glass seen from above. Yeast drifts under a microscope lens, a glass of vin doux naturel ages from grenat to rancio as you scroll, and the header carries the time, the weather and the Tramontane blowing over Thuir.

Moments

3 to try on the site
  1. 01Grenat, tuilé, ambré, rancioRoussillon's sweet wines tell their age by their colour. Scroll, and the glass ages.
  2. Four ways of looking at one wine, on dark grey, beside yeast cells drifting in a round microscope view
    02Under the lensFrom the lab to the glass, step by step, with yeast lees drifting under the lens.
  3. A drawn map of the Roussillon with nine places marked, Thuir and Les Aspres described beside it

    A journal: science without jargon, tastings, a year in the vineyard.
  • Quality, science and clear advice for wine businesses, above a photograph of barrels in an arch
    For estates, wine shops and restaurants.

Under the hood

Full-stack, front to server

  • Its own generator

    A small static site generator in Python writes all 74 pages, in four languages, from one set of content files.

  • Drawn in the browser

    The chromatogram and the yeast are generated on canvas from a seeded random, so they look the same on every visit.

  • Live weather over Thuir

    The header reads the temperature and the wind from Open-Meteo, and streaks across one section follow the real wind.

  • Found in four languages

    Canonical and hreflang links, Open Graph, structured data for the person and every article, and a share image made for every page in every language.

  • Private until launch

    The whole site sits behind a password page checked on the server; shared links still show their preview.

  • A storyboard first

    Before the build, a brand storyboard for Isabel, to agree on the look together.
