AT Roca Finca Els Gorgs is a wine made with Macabeo and Xarel·lo grapes from a 60-year-old vineyard owned by the Agustís (Mata and Roca) family. The vineyard sits on calcareous soil, and while not at a high altitude, its privileged location makes it a cool and refreshing area. So much so, in fact, that the Agustís have named it their "darling" for crafting a long-aged sparkling wine (100 months). First, they produce a base wine from the blend of varieties, ferment it in stainless steel tanks, and then age it for 8 months in barrels and stainless steel tanks. It then undergoes a second fermentation on its lees in the bottle for 8.5 years. The result of this meticulous process is a masterful, fresh, and elegant sparkling wine with a creamy effervescence that is incredibly pleasing. Enjoy!
