Domaine Bordaxuria
Domaine Bordaxuria is located in Ispoure, in the Irouléguy wine region, and was created in the 1980s by the Reca family. The three daughters of the family took over the estate in 2014, developing both the winemaking and cheesemaking aspects of the family farm.
The estate covers 9 hectares of vineyards, 80% of which are terraced on silty and sandstone soils very rich in iron. The red grape varieties are primarily Tannat, with Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon in smaller quantities, and the white grape varieties include Gros Manseng, Petit Manseng, and Petit Courbu. The vineyards are currently undergoing organic conversion.
The wines produced are red, white and rosé, with controlled yields between 22 and 30 hl/ha. The estate seeks to reflect the unique terroir of the steep slopes of Irouléguy while respecting the natural balance of the vine.
