Elaboration:
We make "Eukeni" in memory of D. Eugenio Alava, our familiar predecessor and precursor of the Denomination of Origin Arabako Txakolina – Txakoli de Alava. We elaborate it from a selection of own grape that we 100% macerate to extract the best of the varieties. Two months of work on the lees guarantee the durability of a traditional txakoli with which we try that the legacy left to us by Eugenio lasts over time. This is the way we make "Eukeni", a tribute txakoli.
Tasting notes:
Intense aromas characteristic of the native Hondarrabi Zuri variety, with the presence of organoleptic notes contributed by the Gros Manseng and Petit Courbu varieties, result in a fresh, bright and fruity txakoli. The incorporation of cold maceration in the process of elaboration, the work with lees and batonage with natural CO2 of the fermentation intensify notably the aromas, that burst impetuously in the uncorking.
