Ruby red in colour, the wine has vibrant aromas of wild strawberry, cranberry, ripe cherry, soft herbs, clove and a lifted violet note. On the palate, the wine has supple tannins, refreshing acidity and a juicy finish shaped by the limestone soils.

The fruit is sourced from a selection of vineyard plots in the Juncarejos area, situated at around 600 metres above sea level on calcareous soils. The vines are traditionally bush-trained (goblet), with meticulous organic vineyard management throughout the growing season. Green pruning and cluster thinning are carried out to regulate yields and promote even ripening, while organic treatments are applied only when necessary to maintain vine health.

The wine is a blend of different vineyard plots and grape varieties from a single site. Each parcel is harvested and vinified separately according to its ripeness, with an average of 70% whole-bunch fermentation. Depending on the variety, maceration lasts between eight and 15 days before the wines are aged for nine months, predominantly in concrete tanks, with a short period in seasoned barriques to enhance texture and complexity without imparting overt oak character.

Born and raised in the small village of La Font de la Figuera, south of Valencia, Javi Revert has been a driving force in revitalising the area's winemaking culture, working with its wealth of old vines and local varieties. In the words of Ferrán Centelles (JancisRobinson.com): “Javi Revert represents the ultimate expression of the new Mediterranean style” producing “wines of striking freshness”.
