Anima Mundi is AT Roca’s biodynamic range, committed to organic viticulture and the most authentic expression of the terroir via low intervention winemaking.
Gres, aptly named with a nod to the soil, is a wine you can easily get smitten with. It’s so delightful that it's easy to find yourself savouring every drop until the bottle is empty. It welcomes you with enticing aromas of zesty lemon and lime, gracefully mingling with the gentle notes of apple and pear, which persist on the palate. A whisper of stony mineral presence adds intrigue, culminating in a refreshing, lingering finish.
Gres is made from the Xarel.lo grape, one of the key grapes in Cava. The grapes were hand harvested from 65 year old vines in biodynamic plots within Penedès. These plots have extremely calcareous soils, with a high content of sedimentary rocks and sandstone (Gres). The grapes were pressed prior to fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Two simultaneous fermentations took place with 50% of the grapes fermented in old 500L barrels and the other 50% in stainless steel vats. Following fermentation, the wine was aged for 6 months on its fine lees before blending and bottling. This wine has no added sulfites and is not fined, nor filtered.
