Description

We are a small winery located in the upper Garate, in Llodio. It was born in 2007 as a result of the deep-rooted tradition of the Garate baserri for the elaboration of txakoli. We grow four grape varieties: Hondarrabi Zuri, Petit Courbu, Riesling and Hondarribi Beltza, from which two txakolis are produced: white txakoli Garate. We also produce txakoli fermented in French barrels, txakoli vermouth and Riesling monovarietal.

WINEMAKING
Made
with grapes from plot 1038 of the Petit Courbu-Hondarrabi Zuri Zerratia variety. The grapes are harvested in 10 kg boxes that are quickly transported to the winery for destemming and pressing at low pressure. Fermentation begins in stainless steel tanks and then moves to French oak barrels, where it ferments. Once fermented, it continues in barrels where it is aged together with its lees for 6 months. After this time, it is clarified and bottled. It will remain in the bottle for a year.

TASTING NOTES
Txakoli Irribarrak Frida has a bright straw yellow color. High intensity on the nose with notes of yeast, compotes and stone fruit. Fresh, round and long on the palate.
