Project Description
Origins that exude authenticity
Itsasmendi 2020
This year 2020 that we will not forget, we started the harvest on September 9, more than 10 days before the earlier year, ending on October 9. We advance the harvest to try to maintain the freshness that denotes an Atlantic climate.
This young, fresh and saline txakoli undoubtedly denotes the presence of the Cantabrian Sea and the complexity and diversity of the origin of all our vineyards. Coupage of Hondarrabi Zuri and Hondarrabi Zuri
Zerratie.
TECHNICAL DATASHEET
Varieties
Made from the indigenous varieties Hondarrabi zuri and Hondarrabi zuri zerratie.
Vineyards and winemaking
The wide range of soils and microclimates of our vineyards planted since 1990, make for a harvest that stretches out over three weeks. Sustainable viticulture and environmentally friendly winemaking stamp their mark on the personality of this Txakoli.
Tasting note
A straw yellow that denotes youth and maturity from a very warm vintage, with a very dry summer and also the first 2/3 of the
vintage. Aromas of white fruit, orange blossom and lemon peel, wild aromatic plants of great complexity.
Fresh and intense in the mouth where fruit and citrus are enhanced. Fatty and tasty salinity with a floral, bitter and typical finish of the hondarrabi zuri that favors a long and persistent wine.
