Spanish term

la variedad dentro de la calidad

Spanish to English Other Wine / Oenology / Viticulture
It's me again. Same context: a short text from a winemaker about his philosophy of wine making. This wine maker is hosting a big tasting event and his introduction to the catalogue he states, more or less that 'it is a pleasure to see so much variety (of styles of wine/grape varieties) in quality (winemakers/wineries)'...but that sounds horrible to me and I am not inspired at all.

Here is the full sentence:

"Es un placer la variedad dentro de la calidad".

You could also say "pairing variety with quality" or "matching variety and quality" but I think "marriage of variety and quality" fits better

agree neilmac : The world needs more joy. Maybe also "such variety and quality is a joy to see (or behold)"...

quality with variety

I think just turning it round will do the trick. "Quality with variety" implies "not just quality but variety as well", in other words variety within or on top of quality.

I think we want something as snappy and concise as the original, if possible, so not too explanatory or discursive, and ideally keeping the abstract terms. This is a way of doing it.

It's a pleasure to have/find quality with variety.

Spanish term (edited): Es un placer la variedad dentro de la calidad

The perfect mix of quality and variety

I haven’t been able to come up with anything snappy or natural sounding with “pleasure/joy” in it; but I have come up with this, which is a slightly different take on things...

Hope it helps :)
