The wine is then bottled at the very end of fermentation, so it completes the process in the bottle.

Proyecto Nakkal is made by two childhood friends who studied oenology together, and in 2020 started their dream of making natural wines in Uruguay.
Why the name Nakkal? The Nakkales, ancient priests of the lost continent “Atlantis” guarded the knowledge, wisdom, and energy of the population. Among its principles, intervene as less as possible in order to generate a natural balance and guarantee the collective well-being. An inspiration and the premise for making their wines. The vineyards are located in two regions in the south of Uruguay, El Colorado and Paso de La Arena. As for the climate, both are characterized by having clay soils, with a high content of organic matter, a cool climate, a high rainfall regime, and a moderate thermal amplitude. The style of their wines reflects these characteristics of the area, which allow them to produce wines with a lower alcohol content, light tannins, good acidity, and a lot of freshness. All vineyards are managed with sustainable production protocols, avoiding the use of any type of product that has a negative impact on the vineyard, or the ecosystem in which they coexist.
