Parker om: Taika Brut

The ancestral sparkling white 2016 Taïka was produced with blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon that partially fermented in oak barrels; the grapes were picked at 12% potential alcohol because he wants more complexity and character than if he picked the grapes at 10.5% potential alcohol, as he wants more than just autolysis in the wine. The wine has 12.4% alcohol and is bone dry, and no sugar was added at any point of the process. It's subtle, complex and clean, with full aromas and flavors from properly ripened grapes along with a creamy touch. This was disgorged in March 2022, so it had a long time in contact with the lees in bottle. It's a lot more complex than the majority of ancestral sparkling wines, and it has very integrated and small bubbles that make it nicely textured. This is about precision and finesse, Bobet's signature. 3,200 bottles produced. 94/100

Min vinmager

Castell d’Encus

Raül Bobet, som også er vinmager på Priorat-vingården Ferrer Bobet, var på udkig efter et passende terroir for at undgå virkningerne af klimaforandringerne. I 2001 fandt han det helt rigtige sted med det tidligere kloster Castell d'Encus i ca. 1.000 meters højde.
