Tasting notes Unzu Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica 2024

White wine Aged on its lees. 6 meses sobre lías en inox y barricas.

Unzu Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica 2024 is a white wine that exudes elegance with the natural ease of one destined to shine. The nose is filled with luscious white fruits—like perfectly ripe apricots and peaches—enveloped in a subtle veil of smoke and bergamot (a citrus fruit akin to lemon), reminiscent of summer's lingering presence as evening falls. On the palate, it caresses gently, enveloping with a creamy and vibrant texture. Its finish, long and fruity, leaves an impression that lingers in memory as well as taste.

About Unzu Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica

Seemingly simple gestures can herald the beginning of grand tales, such as that napkin which altered the fate of the footballer Lionel Messi, or a notarised document signed in Tudela in 1647 that gave rise to one of Spain's most illustrious wine dynasties. Juan Chivite Frías, alongside his sister-in-law, secured a loan with a vineyard and a winery. Unbeknownst to him, he was sealing the birth of a lineage that, eleven generations later, continues to inscribe its legacy of passion with wine.
 
Today, nearly four centuries later, Julián Chivite López pens a new chapter under the name of Unzu, a venture that continues to uphold the family heritage and love for the craft, bearing the surname of his children.
 
Unzu represents the mature expression of a passion inherited and nurtured through generations. From Cintruénigo, a town in the Chartered Community of Navarra, and with the wisdom of those who have lived wine from its roots, Julián honours tradition with a personal and contemporary perspective, guided by mentors, memories, and an unwavering respect for the land.
 
Unzu Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica is a white wine born from vines over 25 years old, rooted in clay-limestone soils that breathe a continental climate tempered by the Atlantic breeze. Its vinification combines technical precision with artisanal sensitivity: 40% of the must ferments in new French oak barrels and 60% is aged on lees for six months. The result is a white wine of noble character, unctuous, structured, and full of nuances, where the elegance of the chardonnay variety finds a perfect balance between freshness and depth.
 
Perfect for a special meal or a lingering sunset toast, this wine invites one to pause time. It pairs with fine fish, roasted poultry, or soft cheeses, but above all with conversations that deserve to be remembered. For every glass of Unzu Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica speaks not only of terroir and technique, but also of the legacy of a family that has made wine their most beautiful way of being in the world.
