Bodegas Itsas Mendi Bizkaiko Txakolina '7' 2020
Bodegas Itsas Mendi Bizkaiko Txakolina ‘7’ (the magical number of wisdom and perfection), is the result of many years work, watching and learning from the vines. It is a blend of 9 subplots picked at two different times, 3 plots in the first week of maturation and 4 plots in the second week of maturation. It was first created in 2003 with two objectives: to create a Txakoli with more body and structure by ageing it for longer and also to create a wine that would accompany perfectly the gastronomy of the Basque County. This white wine is a blend of Hondarrabi Zuri Zerratie (Petit Corbu), Hondarrabi Zuri (Gros Corbu), Lore Makala (Riesling) and Izkiriot Handia (Gros Mangseng). Fermented and matured in stainless steel tanks on the lees for 9 months. A rich, powerful and unctuous Txakoli with perfectly balanced acidity that has the capacity to mature and develop complexity and elegance over time.
