The Denbora 2023 cuvée from Domaine Bordatto is a cider that simply cannot leave you indifferent.
Made from the fermentation of old cider apple varieties from the village of Jaxu—where the estate is located in the heart of the Basque Country—“Denbora” means “time…” in Basque. Indeed, Bixintxo and Pascale took the time to revive these old varieties, starting from scratch on a single plot.
You will be immediately charmed by the floral nose of this lively cider, evoking fresh blackberry notes.
On the palate, the freshness of this semi-sweet cider will carry you away to a beautiful summer evening on the terrace, thanks to its remarkable length. Its captivating aromatic profile, where the apples almost fade into the background, leaves an impressively long finish… a true delight!
With its freshness, it can perfectly replace a white wine to accompany tapas.
For a complete experience, compare it with the 2021 vintage which is deliberately still, two different vintages do not yield the same result if you take the time to understand them.

Pascale et Bixintxo APHAULE
Pascale and Bixintxo APHAULE, both born into the world of wine, have a deep attachment to their land. They have chosen to work here with respect for people, nature and their Basque heritage.
Founded in 2001, Domaine Bordatto was built from the ground up. They have distinguished themselves from their Spanish Basque counterparts thanks to their cellared apple wines, which have the character of grands crus.
Driven by a deep love for the craft of winemaking and their region, they have embarked on an ambitious life project, cultivating 4.5 hectares of orchards and 2.5 hectares of vineyards.
From a dry apple wine with complex aromas to a fresh cider made from 12 local varieties, Domaine Bordatto showcases a fruit-growing heritage well-suited to organic farming. Each cuvée, named in Basque, fully expresses the Basque terroir.
