Decanter om: Simeta Arcos

Some might be surprised by this wine’s lightish colour given its origin, but this 100% Arcos (a local variety) delivers impact, structure and a strong personality. Dried herbs and undergrowth dominate, with a bitter medicinal aroma that intertwines beautifully with the intense red berry fruit. It is a wine with noticeable, fresh (and high) acidity, resulting in drive as well as texture. With an attractive chalkiness on the finish, this is a unique and characterful wine. Beautiful!

Parker om: Simeta Arcos

I had tasted the unbottled 2023 Simeta, pure Arcos, last year next to the 2022 vintage. 2023 was a cooler year, basically saved by some rain at the end of the summer. The vines were planted in 1970 on sandy soils with iron and fragmented limestone. The wine had a similar vinification and élevage, 100% full clusters in concrete and aging in a 1,500-liter oak vat and 500-liter barrels, followed by a further six months in concrete. Compared to the 2022, it has lower alcohol, 13.5%, a lower pH, 3.48, and 5.3 grams of acidity. It is obviously young, but it already shows narrower and longer, more complete, but also more approachable and with better parameters. Simeta now shows more primary than Foradà; it feels very pretty but somehow Foradà has grown in complexity. The palate has terrific balance and elegance and an ethereal side to it. 2,700 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2025.
