The Story: Ugaitz Iturbe is the 6th generation producer on his family’s farmhouse or baserri in the town of Artea, but the first to completely dedicate the estate to winemaking. Working with a mere 2 hectares at 300m elevation, no vine escapes his attention to detail. With this unfiltered bottling, Ugaitz hopes to showcase txakoli as only producers can typically enjoy it with all of its body and aroma intact.
Why You’ll Love Me: I am fresh and unfiltered, with notes of lime peel, fresh picked flowers and a hint of salinity
