In this wine, the image of St. Jordi, the noble knight of Catalonia, faces his dragon to honor it. In our story, the dragon is a force to be met as an equal.
St. Jordi, The Valor of the West
In Western myth, St. Jordi freed his people from fear of a dragon that once threatened the land. His tale became a symbol of protection and valor for the people of Barcelona.
He does not ride out of conquest. He rides to meet the unknown, to defend what is sacred, and to restore the balance between fear and faith. In the House of Blaví, his image is a vow: that courage is the first step of understanding.
The Lóng, The Wisdom of the East
From the East, the Lóng (龙), the dragon of ancient China, is creation. It is strength and wisdom, imperial dignity, control over the rains, prosperity, and good fortune.
It is a guide, one that leads the worthy to greatness. Where the Western dragon is a trial to overcome, the Eastern dragon is a presence to be honored, a keeper of the order of heaven and water.
In the House of Blaví, these two forces face each other in recognition. The knight and the dragon now stand at equal height, each a symbol of tradition, power, guardianship, and transformation. Together, they frame the label and the wine as a new emblem of balance between East and West, between valor and wisdom, between man and myth.
