The wine
The Baigorri Blanco Fermentado en Barrica is a majestic, characterful white well worth discovering. It's made from grapes of the Viura and Malvasía varieties, allowed to ferment and then matured for 8 months in new French oak barrels. On the nose it exhibits expressive aromas of ripe white fruit, enhanced with balsamic and slightly spicy notes resulting from its oak ageing. On the palate, work with the lees confers creaminess and complexity. Elegant and balanced right from first contact to its long, lasting finish.

To the passer-by, only a huge glass cube can be seen among an extensive carpet of vineyards; however, all of the industrious action in the winery takes place below, in its seven underground storeys descending to a depth of 32 metres. Since its...
