SM La Sorga 2017

La Sorga is a project by Anthony Tortul born in 2008. Anthony decides to devote himself to the vine and after years dedicated to finding the ideal place to put down roots, he chooses Vias, in Languedoc-Roussillon adjacent to the Pyrenees with a predominant role in the choice. It starts with shop activities, buying grapes from different suppliers on one condition: the perfect health of the varieties. Since 2013 it has started to produce its own grapes: the vines must necessarily be healthy, native, old and absolutely organically or biodynamic. His focus is on craftsmanship and the spontaneity of nature is only supported by his non-interventionist work. With the recovery of native grapes he manages to vinify an extrovert variety of grapes: Terret Blanc, Terret Gris, Cot, Sauvignon, Morvedre, Cinsault, Aramon, Grenache, Muzac, Muscat and many others, coming from different areas. The vinification takes place in its cellar, with as few interventions as possible, spontaneous fermentation, indigenous yeasts, maceration in small open barrels using the "hat", and then continues with aging in concrete tanks or wooden barrels. Its labels, each time different, speak the same young language of wine. Artistic, rebellious, sometimes irreverent, provocative, they always manage to tell us a little about the wine contained, each time different, always on the move and always alive.
