About La Furtiva Brisat dels Arcs

The fervour of Óscar Navas for wine knows no bounds. It's all or nothing. Half-measures do not suffice for him. From this zealous spirit emerges La Furtiva Brisat dels Arcs, a skin-contact wine that encapsulates the quintessence of the D.O. Terra Alta.

Pushing the boundaries of skin-contact wine, yet without masking or concealing the terroir, was the initial ambition of this young vintner when he embarked on the journey of macerations. His legacy is rooted in 4 Kilos, the Mallorcan winery where he took his initial steps and from which he gleaned all his knowledge. Now, those very steps have led him back to Terra Alta, Villalba dels Arcs (his grandmother's village), where he has returned to craft wines that reflect his unique perspective of these sandy soils—arid, low in organic matter, yet with deep water reserves. Thanks to this, the vines can endure the dry Mediterranean summers—though not without a struggle—forcing their roots to reach down to the water tables. This struggle results in vines that yield few fruits, but those that are produced are intense and of high quality. In the case of La Furtiva Brisat dels Arcs, these vineyards are situated at an altitude of 600 meters.

La Furtiva Brisat dels Arcs is vinified using whole grapes, unstemmed, with a maceration period of 50 days. During this time, the must remains in contact with the skins, absorbing all the vigor and identity that so distinctly define these wines. After this period, La Furtiva Brisat is racked and foot-trodden (in the traditional manner), effectively separating the solid from the liquid components. Only the free-run juice or 'flower wine' is used, which is typically the first juice obtained with minimal pressure. This type of juice, with fewer polyphenols, tends to yield much finer and more elegant wines. Finally, La Furtiva Brisat dels Arcs ferments in open vats, using indigenous yeasts, and will spend eight months maturing in demijohns.

Through this vinification process, the Garnacha Blanca, an indigenous variety of the region, will reach its fullest expression. Go all in with La Furtiva Brisat dels Arcs!

2022

La Furtiva Brisat dels Arcs 2022 is an exuberant and characterful orange wine. Upon the initial taste, it unveils a subtly robust texture that belies its youth. Olfactorily, it unfurls a spectrum of scents with a dominance of citrus notes, conjuring up oranges and tangerines, augmented by a hint of ripe apricots. Its distinct profile and vivacity render it an expressive and readily enjoyable wine.
2021

La Furtiva Brisat dels Arcs 2021 is a complex orange wine with aromas of ripe yellow fruit accompanied by herbaceous notes and saline hints. The palate is powerful, unctuous and deep. A wine with a very well achieved maceration that allows us to enjoy a voluminous and, at the same time, delicate texture. The finish is lingering and very mineral.
