On December 12, the new Vins de Finca for 2023 were unveiled. This implies a recognition that can be granted to a wine or other product category of the 8 Catalan DO’s that collect in their specifications of these types of products.
Vi de Finca means, within a DO, produced in a specific environment, of an area smaller than that of a municipality, with its own characteristics, whose name is notoriously linked to the vineyards from which wines with spatial qualitative characteristics are obtained, and which must have the prior report of the corresponding regulatory council.
Especial Picapoll 2020, the wine that certifies one of the winery’s big bets: the recovery of native varieties. Made solely and exclusively with Picapoll Negre, it is an elegant and delicate wine aged in old oak for 6 months. A further 6 months in concrete, and aging in bottle for at least 2 years. A limited edition of just over 1000 bottles.
This is a wine from a single plot, Margenat. A privileged landscape at the foot of the mountain of Montserrat. An estate of 600 ha surrounded by forest, where inside are our vineyards. Everything has a purpose. In short, a clear commitment to sustainability and care for the environment.
The journalist Ruth Troyano defines it as Sensibility, Fulfilling a dream. “A personal bet, a project of affection” … The wine is finesse and elegance. Layers of depth and complexity that envelop and speak of terroir and place, of confidence in forgotten grapes, difficult to manage. And of the pride of trying, without referents. “Leading is an important challenge”. There are signs of red fruit and a spicy accent. Identity and delicacy seek earthy textures to harmonize mushrooms and truffle go well together. The magic to inspire and persist.
