Gorka Izagirre ‘Arima’ Late Harvest, 2019

Orange peel, baked apricot, honeysuckle and a smoky, toasty character from oak barrels on the nose. The wine is concentrated and honeyed, but not at all cloying, due to balancing acidity. It offers notes of bitter marmalade on the appealingly dry and savoury finish.

Country: Spain Region: Basque Grapes: Hondarrabi Zuri, Hondarrabi Zerratia
