Vineyard
Pinot Noir from Muskiz, the first vineyard planted by Itsasmendi in 1989, with a red grape graft in 2010. It produces 4,500 kg/year.
Characteristics
“Rosé” of pale color, onion skin and that presents a fresh and mineral nose, not only limestone but touches of talcum powder and slightly phosphorous. As it opens up, herbaceous and fruity nuances such as acid strawberry and small flashes of wild flowers such as chamomile are discovered. Limestone plot in the middle of the Cantabrian holm oak forest, where spontaneous fermentation contributes the annual microbiological variability that moves it in very varied registers of an Atlantic character.
Tasting notes
A salmon-colored “berezi” (special) rosé Txakoli that offers an intense and complex nose with nuances of wild red fruit, citrus fruits like grapefruit, and aniseed herbs, with a balsamic and floral background and even hints of peach. The entry on the palate is smooth and saline. It expands as it moves inward, coating the palate with its richness and harmonious acidity. Its aromatic profile reveals wild strawberries and herbs like fennel and sage, culminating in a long, citrusy, and floral finish with a subtle bitterness that makes it a very food-friendly Txakoli.
Limited production of 700 bottles.
