A North Star with a Cantabrian nerve
At Itsasmendi, we practice sustainable viticulture aiming to integrate the vineyard harmoniously into every ecosystem and, as a result, nature gives us grapes with a distinctive quality. Ongoing study of the ecological variables has led us to discover diverse specific situations in the vineyards. Placing special emphasis on this richness provided by the natural environment and our vinicultural philosophy, the originality of Artizar lies in having the freedom necessary each year to choose small areas and vinicultural details that are at times imperceptible, so they can express themselves to the full in this new Txakoli.

The force of nature revealing unimagined horizons
Vineyards
The originality of this wine lies in its freedom to chart its own course each vintage: the aim is to discover the means to showcase the viticultural and winemaking details and little corners, at times imperceptible in larger volumes of production but that characterize each vintage, so they can find full expression.
Winemaking
A Hondarrabi Zuri from a margocaliza plot with areas of
shales and with 10% of Izkiriot Tippia, elegant mature and
a direct and deep acidity.
Fermented in the final phase and aged for 10 months on the lees
fine in a 2000 liter vat, with 7 campaigns.
Tasting note
Straw yellow with slightly golden hues obtained by
the small percentage fermented with their skins.
Intense nose that intoxicates you with white and bone fruit, citrus
like orange peel. In the background is a tea plant and
even menthol.
