Itsasmendi Artizar 2018 Grand Golden Bacchus and chosen The Best White Wine Bacchus 2024

29 Apr

Artizar 2018 Gran Bacchus de Oro

Txakoli Bizkaino once again obtains international recognition in the search for a privileged place among the great white wines of today, winning the Vinofed Award for Best White Wine 2024.

Bodegas Itsasmendi obtuvo con su Itsasmendi 7 2008 su primer Bacchus de Oro en el 2010 y a lo largo de estos años ha cosechado 12 Bacchus de Plata, 5 Bacchus de Oro y con este su segundo Gran Bacchus de Oro.

Histórico Bacchus

From April 2015 to 2019 have been the dates chosen by the Spanish Union of Tasters for the celebration in Madrid of Bacchus 2024. Once again, Madrid has dressed up to receive a collection of Masters of Wine, Masters Sommelier, sommeliers , importers, purchasing managers, journalists and top-level national and international communicators, essential judges to award the medals awarded by Bacchus to the best entries.

One of the Spanish events that arouses great expectation. It is organized by the Spanish Union of Tasters (UEC) and this edition more than 1,900 wines from 18 countries have registered. Bacchus is the only International Wine Competition in Spain that currently belongs to VINOFED, the Federation that integrates the most reputable competitions worldwide.

ITSASMENDI ARTIZAR This product was born in 2010 with the intention of highlighting the small wine-growing details that occur in the peculiar wine-growing model of Itsasmendi.

The originality of this product lies in having the necessary freedom to trace its own trail each vintage and that, like a lucky star, it shines with its own light. It is about opening a path for small corners and viticultural details that are sometimes imperceptible in larger productions and whose knowledge is the result of experience, research and the natural variables that occur each year, which can be expressed in all their magnitude. A free style Txakoli that aims to reflect the concept of a GRAN CRU.

This txakoli has obtained different recognitions throughout its history, among others we could highlight:

  • Silver Bacchus 2018—Itsasmendi Artizar 2013
  • Brussels World Competition 2017. Itsasmendi Artizar 2013 SILVER MEDAL.
  • Bacchus de Oro 2015—Itsasmendi Artizar 2012
  • Brussels World Competition 2014. Itsasmendi Artizar 2011 SILVER MEDAL.

TASTING NOTES:

Aged for 9 months in 700l barrels. Intense yellow fruit of the ripening of the vintage. Very complex aromas with ripe citrus, subtle white and stone fruit. Herbaceous background with notes of chamomile, interspersed with balsamic that give it great freshness. Elegant floral notes and a finish of great minerality, with a very limestone character at the end of the mouth. Good entry, fresh and round mid-palate, also perceiving a touch of almonds and yellow flowers.

A great Atlantic txakoli for which we predict an interesting journey in the bottle full of different nuances in its evolution.
