NEW VINTAGE OF THE FINCA OLIVARDOTS GROC D’ÀMFORA 2023
Gamma Finca Olivardots
We are very happy to present you the new vintage of the Groc d’Àmfora 2023, one of our youngest wines in the Finca Olivardots range.
We are talking about a wine of native Empordà varieties such as White Grenache, Red Grenache, Macabeo and White Carignan.
The production of this wine is done through amphorae, a clay container that provides no aroma or taste to the wine and that together with the microxygenation of the wall makes the aromas of the varieties much more concentrated. The fact that it is a round container makes the yeasts of fermentation, that is, the lees, remain suspended naturally and the result in the mouth has much more volume, is more unctuous and has a salty and mineral finish from the amphora itself.
We leave you some recommendations when tasting and pairing this wine
- The Groc d’Àmfora is a fresh wine, with aromas of white fruit and citrus and with floral touches. In the mouth we find a marked but unctuous acidity, with a long salty and mineral aftertaste. We recommend pairing this wine with seafood or anchovies, patés, creamy cheese and even salted ham.
The Finca Olivardots range is born in 80-year-old vines in containers at an altitude of about 100 meters in the Alt Empordà area. All the vineyards worked in an ecological and biodynamic way, thus respecting the process of nature, seeking the maximum expressiveness and character of the identity of that ecosystem with protected natural spaces.
The Empordà is a land of Grenache and Carignan that are the native varieties of this land. We have opted to recover the Red Grenache variety also known as a Lledoner Roig and thus preserve the authenticity of the territory.
