TXALAPARTA 2023
Pronounced "tchalparta"
Has a distinct apple fragrance yet stays complex thanks to its roasted undertones. The fresh and dynamic start gives way to a beautiful metallic flavour that ends with elegant tannins. The bubbles stay delicate.
Selected from two varieties of local apples: apez sagarra with a tannic body and great finesse, its intensity and aromatic expression are generous, and eztika for its fruitiness and completeness.
