Txakoli is a type of fresh wine in the Basque Country. At our estate in the foothills of Mt. Hernio, the ocean breeze comes in from the coast, cuddling the slopes of Mount Hernio, giving our vineyard a remarkable touch. Our estate-grown and terroir-driven wines portray our efforts to live in harmony with nature.
VINIFICATION
Separate fermentation by variety and plot. The grapes are selected and macerated for 2 hours before pressing. The must goes directly to the stainless-steel tanks for 24-30 hours, controlling the temperature to keep it cold enough for fermentation to begin at a low temperature. Selected yeasts are used for start fermentations and take between 10 and 12 days. After fermentation the wine stays on lees contact with daily removal for 3-4 weeks. After a cold stabilization and light filtration the wine is bottled and stored for 4 weeks before being released.
