Michael Andres has a great reggae collection on vinyl. A massive thumbs up in my book. He also makes some of the most mineral driven, fresh and soulful wines I’ve come across in sometime which is also quite a bonus! His relaxed and unassuming personality is coupled with a fanatical devotion to biodynamics and the land which he has worked since his youth.
