La Forcallà de Antonia 2018
Fiche technique
L'avis des experts
The 2018 Forcalla was produced with grapes from a single vineyard planted with the ancient Forcalla, or Forcallat, grape. I think the wine is showing more the varietal character, which feels a little more rustic than the other local grapes, with some earthy tones and a rugged texture. It has a characterful nose with some different notes and a strong personality with rustic elegance. It matured in used 500-liter French oak barrels and three months in concrete. 5,600 bottles were filled in December 2019.
Slowly but surely the Forcallà variety is being revived, and Rafael Cambra has an important role to play. It’s a discreet variety in his version: cherry-coloured, plum and cranberry crispness in the mouth. A bright, chewy wine, refreshing with citrus and wild herbs. Aged in used oak, it’s the fruit that speaks. It blossoms on the finish, supported by the alcohol.
Rafa Cambra es un pequeño productor de Fontanars dels Alforins, enclave pequeño (800 habitantes) peculiar por su ubicación, al suroeste de Valencia, en el límite entre cuatro provincias.

Me ha gustado mucho. Fresco, goloso.
Ya se ha convertido en un clásico que nunca falla. Uva muy madura, golosa, sin mucha intervención de madera, fenomenal trabajo de Rafael
Gluglú de aromas a frutas rojas y hierbas bálsamicas, con un puntillo sulfuroso, que es fresco como el solo. Recuperar cepas es un plus
Muito bom
