Description

90 points Parker (The Wine Advocate)

Technical sheet:

Varietal: 100% Hondarrabi Zuri.

Climate: The 2018 vintage in our area has been characterized by a particularly rainy winter reaching 1000mm in the month of January. Afterwards, spring was somewhat more dry than usual but it gave us enough rainfall to keep our vineyard with the usual vigor. The mild summer led us to a later harvest than usual and with a very healthy fruit rich in sugars, aromas and flavors. 2018 will be one of our legendary vintages.

Vineyard: 15 hectares of 100% Hondarribi-Zuri grape varietal planted on trellis framework at some 300m. above sea level.

Soil: Soil undulating topography formed by shale, laminated slate and granite.

Winemaking: Manual selection of the grapes, a cold pre-fermentation maceration period, and then fermentation in small stainless steel tanks with own yeasts.

Aging: 11 months on its lees in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature.

Winemaker: Lauren Rosillo

Tasting notes

·Visual: Bright, crystal clear, with pale greenish yellow an lemony sparkle.

·Nose: Intense clear notes of fruit and minerals, with subtle hints of white flower and fruits like apple and winter pear, with a salted background that binds it to the Cantabrian.

·Palate: Its large volume in the mouth makes it a round and glyceric wine but with the fresh and Atlantic character of the txakolis. Its acidity makes it an ideal wine to store and enjoy with aging in the bottle for at least 10 years.
