We first came to know Javi Revert through his outstanding work at Celler del Roure, where he was instrumental in shaping the estate’s identity and developing its range of wines aged in restored tinajas (clay jars).

 

In 2014, Javi returned to his home village of La Font de la Figuera, with the aim of working his own vineyards and expressing the spirit of the place through his wines. His project centres on high-altitude parcels planted with local varieties such as Arcos, Garnacha, Monastrell, and Mandó, all farmed with great care and respect for the land.

 

The most precious vineyard in Javi’s collection – ‘Pla de Micalet’ – was planted by his grandfather in the 1940s. Situated at 710–730 m above sea level, this terraced plot is a field blend of indigenous white varieties (Tortosí, Trepadell, Malvasía, Merseguera, PX, and Verdil) grown on chalky soils reminiscent of Jerez’s albariza.

 

In the cellar, Javi works with a light, thoughtful touch, fermenting with natural yeasts and ageing in concrete, large-format oak, glass demijohns, and clay amphorae – all aimed at preserving freshness and transparency in the wines.

 

Alongside his own range of wines, Javi also leads the collaborative project called ‘La Comarcal’ – from 2024 vintage these wines are made in his own winery, ensuring the same thoughtful approach across the entire range.
