The Wine Advocate :

There was no 2015, because they lost the grapes to hail, so I tasted the recently bottled 2016 Forcalla de Antonia produced with Forcalla (or Forcallat) grapes from a very dry year (180 liters!). The vines are 55 years old, ungrafted, on sandy soils at 700 meters altitude and yield no more than two kilos of grapes per plant. It's a late ripener, with low alcohol and little color, that fermented with 10% stems in 2,000-liter vats and aged in used 500-liter French casks plus a further three months in concrete. This feels very young and a little reticent, closed and ungiving, in need of some time to develop some complexity, as it's subtle and floral and you can see it in the palate where the balance is very good and the flavors are focused. This is an elegant, Mediterranean red in need of some more time. 4,500 bottles were filled in August 2017. - Luis Gutiérrez.
