Press Review

The new kid on the block ... It's spicier, with notes of aromatic herbs, but it's a little bit framed by the oak with the core of blood orange and an ethereal side. The palate has abundant, slightly dusty tannins, chalky but weightless. I look forward to future vintages...

- Luis Gutiérrez, 2021 vintage

Overview

Since taking over his family’s ancestral vineyard, La Pla de Micalet, in 2014, Javi Revert has been expanding it and replanting some of its abandoned terraces. Where he has recovered old vines of Arcos, he has planted Garnacha to compliment it. Foradà is the result – a single-parcel wine with the lively fruit of Garnacha anchored by the savory, lifted, and complex nature of Arcos. Above all, however, is the unmistakable stamp on the site, which provides freshness, focus, and fine-grained tannins.
