Anima Mundi " GRES" Xarel-lo

Anima Mundi " GRES" Xarel-lo

Vintage: 2021
Description: Biodynamically Farmed. "Gres is from vineyards of Xarel-lo planted between 1956 and 1974 in Sant Sebastià dels Gorgs in the Alt Penedès. The soils are highly calcareous, but feature a remarkable amount of sandstone as well, and are cultivated according to organic and biodynamic principles. The grapes were harvested by hand and pressed whole cluster, then fermented in two parts: half in 500l used French Oak barrels and half in stainless steel tanks. When fermentation finished, the wine was blended and aged on the lees for 6 months. Bottled without fining, filtering, or sulfur addition. Anima Mundi is a side-project from Agustí Torello Roca, winemaker for his family's estate winery At Roca in the Alt Penedès region of Catalonia. Agustí's goal for this project is to show the true expression of grape and place through keen observation of the land. Anima Mundi is a theory of Plato's, translating to “the soul of the world.” Much in the way that the soul is connected to the body, Agustí sees wine as a way for us to connect with the Earth. For these wines, Agustí works without any additions or interventions in the winery." - Jose Pastor Selections
