Wine critics reviewsReviews by Parker

The white 2019 Santa Cruz de Artazu Blanco was cropped from two Garnacha Blanca plots they planted in the last 15 years with the local strain from Artazu. 2019 was a dry and warm year with low yields. It fermented in stainless steel with some skins and finished fermenting in barrel and then was kept in stainless steel for two years. This has 13.1% alcohol and a pH of 3.22 with 6.15 grams of acidity. It's aromatic and expressive, with notes of peach and flowers (more Viognier than Marsanne), some nuts and herbs, with plenty of acidity to keep the vibrant medium-bodied palate. The oaking is very light, and the wine is fruit-driven. 3,000 bottles were filled in November 2022.

It all began in 1996 with the acquisition of 10 ha of vineyards aged more than 60 years old in the locality of Artazu (Valdizarbe), a well-known, old wine-producing village...
