Javi Revert Simeta 2022
Description
Simeta est un vin mono-cépage issu du cépage autochtone Arcos, provenant d'une seule parcelle située sur le versant sud de la Penya Foradà. C'est un vin rouge très méditerranéen, comme on pouvait s'y attendre, floral et herbacé, riche en notes épicées et doté d'une texture incroyable. Une merveille dont vous vous souviendrez sans aucun doute éternellement.

L'avis des experts
The 2022 Simeta is a single-vineyard varietal Arcos from a plot on the south side of the Penya Foradà mountain that was planted in 1970 on rocky limestone and iron soils, the only wine from red soils. It fermented with 100% full clusters and indigenous yeasts in concrete vats, including malolactic, and matured in a 1,500-liter oak foudre and a 500-liter French oak barrel for one year, followed by six more months in concrete until it was bottled. It has 14% alcohol, a pH of 3.57 and 5.2 grams of acidity. It has some tannins in a somewhat Italian style and is a little earthy with some hints of iron. It's a classical Mediterranean year in the style of 2020, but it's the first year that the wine aged in foudre; this shows in the precision and the lifted character that makes it finer-boned. The red soils give it a different texture from the white soils. This is austere and for the long term. But there's never a sensation of heat or weight. 3,200 bottles were filled in March 2024.
Un hallazgo feliz en forma de viña vieja, plantada por su bisabuelo, Vicent Albero, supuso en 2014 para Javier Revert el germen de lo que hoy es su proyecto personal, uno de los más atractivos del valenciano Valle dels Alforins.
