Product Notes

Baigorri Fermentado en Barrica Blanco wine is an exquisite Spanish offering made primarily from Viura grapes. It's a vibrant, golden-hued wine fermented in French oak barrels, imbuing it with a complex character defined by harmoniously balanced fruity flavours. Expect an intriguing palette of fresh apple, citrus, and hints of vanilla. The wine matures elegantly, developing a tantalising toastiness and subtle notes of spice. The full-bodied texture, rich aroma, and lasting finish make it a pleasure to savour. An excellent conversation-starter, this wine pairs splendidly with a range of dishes, enhancing the dining experience.

Tasting Notes

Golden colour and intense nose, with the highlighted oaky aromas produced by its time in the cask on the lees and prevailing aromas of fruit and balsam. Smooth, elegant, very well-balanced and complex on the palate with a long, intense finish.

About the Winery

Baigorri

Baigorri Winery, located in Spain's prestigious Rioja Alavesa region, is a testament to the harmonious blend of nature, technology and wine craftsmanship. Founded in 2002 by Jesús Baigorri, this winery has carved a unique niche within the wine world.

The architectural superiority of Baigorri is hard to overlook; its impressive seven-storey glass construction, seated amidst the stunning vineyards, is a sight to be tied. The heart of the winery is several meters underground, designed meticulously to take advantage of gravity in the wine-making process. This process reduces damage to the grapes and ensures the wine attains maximum flavour complexity and smoothness, a characteristic trait of Baigorri wines.

Baigorri's vineyards, flourishing in calcareous clay soil, are a rich source of old vines, some of them even close to a century-old. Each vine is treated with utmost care, and the harvest is done manually, with a selective picking process that chooses only the finest grapes.

Known for its deep, powerful and highly aromatic wines, Baigorri specialises in Tempranillo, Grenache and Viura varietals. The winery has honed its wine production capacity to over half a million bottles a year, exporting to many countries across the globe.

However, Baigorri is not just a winery; it's an experience. With its delicious cuisine, designed to complement its wines, and its tours offering in-depth visits to the vineyard and barrel cellar, visitors are promised an unforgettable immersion into the world of wine.

And yet, despite its architectural marvel and technical prowess, Baigorri maintains a strong tie with the elemental simplicity of wine-making, respecting and valuing the raw materials to create something beyond the ordinary. It's a testament to the delicate balance of tradition and innovation. The pursuit of excellence at Baigorri winery, is unyielding:, it's a journey that continues with every bottle.
