The Trikuharri Blanco is a gorgeous example of what the estate’s old vine Viura can express, as it comes from the small plot at the entrance of the Finca san Angel vineyard that was planted about 80 years ago. Once the grapes were brought to the cellar after a hand harvest, they were gently pressed, and the juice was placed in both oak and amphora for natural fermentation. Once complete, there were some months of stirring the gross lees to give great volume to the final wine, giving the ultimate expression of Viura before it was racked and continued its aging (about 10 months total in the two vessels – chosen for different levels of micro-oxygenation). The nose is quite fresh and lively, with crisp fruit, citrus, and yellow flowers shooting forth. The volume is full in the mouth, with incredible texture yet precision and clarity in the weight, offering spiced apples, Meyer lemon, honey, and a delicious salty kick. Best with some time to age or ample breathing time to showcase these old vines' layers.
