Description
The Finca l'Argata cuvée marks the stylistic renewal of the d'Anguera family. Formerly concentrated and oaky, this wine has become, under the impetus of Joan and Josep d'Anguera, a model of finesse and elegance, often compared to the great wines of the Côte de Nuits or the Grenaches of Rayas. From a single vineyard planted on sandy soils, this 2018 vintage expresses all the poetry and verticality of the Darmós terroir.
A pure Grenache grown biodynamically (one of the pioneers in Catalonia), the wine is vinified as whole clusters to bring freshness and structure. Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in concrete vats. A patient aging of 14 to 16 months in old French oak barrels (multiple uses) allows the terroir to express itself without any oak influence.
Finca l'Argata 2018 unveils an airy and captivating bouquet. It opens with notes of wild raspberry, pomegranate, and wilted rose, complemented by hints of Mediterranean aromatic herbs (thyme, lavender) and white pepper.
On the palate, the wine stands out for its silky texture and great fluidity. The use of stems provides a noble vegetal structure that stretches the wine toward a saline and vibrant finish. It is a delicate, lace-like wine, far from the usual clichés of power associated with the region.
