Parker über:
Forada
The 2022 Foradà is only the second vintage from a plot planted in 2018 on old terraces at 800 meters above sea level, a north exposition planted with Arcos and Garnacha. It fermented in concrete with 100% full clusters and indigenous yeasts and matured in a 500-liter barrel and glass demijohns for 18 months. It's very pale, a constant in this wine, with a nose of ripe wild strawberries, very attractive, showing the effect of the very warm and dry year in the aromatics, where there's more ripeness than in the 2023 I tasted next to it. There's also more evolution here, a little à la Rayas, hinting on notes of brick dust and forest floor, a little decadent and baroque, with fragility. It has 14% alcohol, a pH of 3.57 and five grams of acidity. It's very Mediterranean. Only 750 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2024.
