Tasting note
Pale yellow colour with green shades, clean and glossy. It is a wine with aromas of white and exotic fruit (pineapple, chirimoya) on the nose, as well as notes of flowers and fresh herbs. It has a very well-integrated acidity; it is fresh and lively on the palate.
Winemaking
The harvest is carried out manually. The grapes are de-stemmed and pressed; next, several clearing processes are carried out. Afterwards, a controlled fermentation takes place at 13 degrees celsius. It is allowed to settle between 10 and 12 degrees celsius and then it is filtered and bottled.
Climate
The DO Txakoli de Alava is located in a region influenced by an Atlantic climate. This region has a mild climate and with an average temperature slightly above 13 degrees celsius. The average annual rainfall is around 900ml. The main risk that the vineyard is exposed to is the spring frosts.
Technical note
The Atlantis collection is impregnated by the mysteries of the ocean, with sea
creatures on its labels that have been inspired by those featured on old navigational
charts and in stories and legends of seafarers.
Vineyards
Vineyards located in land that is complicated to labour because of its slopes. This is compensated by a good aeration and sun exposure of the plant.
