Mars Bonfire, Steppenwolf’s drummer’s brother, saw a poster which said,” Born To Ride” with a photo of a motorbike taking off from the ground surrounded by fire. Around that time, he had bought his first car and that’s how the idea came about to celebrate the freedom of being able to go where you want and when you want. NASA used “Born To Be Wild” to wake up their astronaut crews. And when a spaceship landed for the first time on Mars the small exploratory vehicle went down the ramp to the rhythm of “Get your motor running”. In 2004 Paris Hilton asked permission to use the song in her reality show The Simple Life. The band refused.” There are things Rock’n’Roll can’t accept.” The organic Bobal grapes are grown in poor clay soils situated in the west of the province of Valencia at 700 metres altitude. The vines grow in a ‘continental’ climate influenced by the Mediterranean. The wine spends 9 months in French and American oak barrels. Best enjoyed relaxing and/or with pasta, rice and red meat dishes. The Bobal grape variety has really high levels of resveratrol, an antioxidant and a heart healthy polyphenol, which helps metabolise fats. -
Celler del Roure is making very interesting wines with local grape varieties in the Valencia area. Many of these old, indigenous varieties are largely forgotten and Cullerot highlights three of them (Verdil, Tortosina, and Merseguera) together with Pedro Ximénez, Macabeo, Malvasía, and others. In addition to their focus on indigenous grape varieties, Celler del Roure is employing traditional vinifications methods: hand harvesting, fermenting with native yeasts in stone lagars, and aging in very old clay amphorae. Cullerot has a bit of skin contact, and is medium bodied with notes of stone fruit, tropical notes, apple skin, and clay-y minerality. A great, truly interesting, "almost-orange" skin contact white wine, for less than €20. -

Javier Revert Viticultor is the personal project of Javi Revert, oenologist and part of the technical team of Celler del Roure since 2009. It all started in 2014, when Javier started to recover a vineyard planted by his great-grandfather in the highest area of Font de la Figuera, an area influenced by the Mediterranean character and the harsh winter of La Mancha. It was in the 2016 vintage when their first wines were launched. Javier Revert is one of the young winemakers who tries to interpret the landscape, looking for the best orientations, recovering abandoned vineyards and planting new ones with historical varieties from the area. Javier Revert Sensal is a red wine made with Red Grenache and Monastrell from a 0.8-hectare vineyard with the same name planted in 1965 at 700 metres of altitude on clayey, fresh and slightly clayey soils.

La Comarcal del Moro is part of a collaboration of two friends, Javi Revert and Victor Marqués, who first worked together at Celler del Roure. This wine comes from terroir specific vineyards to express the very best of the varieties they work with. Delmoro is predominantly Garnacha with some Bobal and Syrah in the blend, fermented separately, and aged in stainless steel and oak. All coming from a four hectare single vineyard. Rustic, but seductive, young but with some great lenght and complexity, this wine is not to be underestimated. Goes beautifully with poultry, pork and salmon.
