LA COMARCAL VITICULTURES VALENCIA, SPAIN

La Comarcal (“The District”) is a young winery founded in 2017 by two good friends who happen to be two of eastern Spain’s most talented viticultors: Javi Revert and Victor Marqués. The inspiration is to make delicious, youthful wines—new expressions based on the old mountain vineyards of native Valencian grape varieties they farm with certified organic viticulture and native yeasts. They focus on regenerative agriculture in every aspect of their work. From researching the best locations to replant native varieties and constantly exploring their Valencian region, searching for unique plots of land with stories to tell, to working with traditional mixed- agriculture farming and planting trees, Javi and Victor are lifelong students of their natural environment, with the winemaking experience to make a significant impact in their region. It shows in the energy and transparency of the project, as this winemaking duo is among the most exciting teams to watch in Spain. Javi Revert comes from a long line of Valencian winemakers, working with historic vineyards originally planted by his great grandfather. Victor Marqués has worked with several prestigious winemaking cooperatives over the years, in addition to his work at Celler del Roure. Both bring an incredible amount of experience, talent, and passion to their work in exalting the diversity of their native Valencian region. Their collaboration brings together their collective expertise and skills with a focus on bettering their region’s winemaking legacy.
