Winemaker Notes
Bright and clear pale yellow wine with green reflects with intense aromas of citrus and white flowers, ripe tropical fruit on the base gives complexity and character. Round and mineral mouth with a crispy balanced acidity with low alcohol, makes a vibrant and unique Txakoli.

Medium blush in the glass, this wine has aromas of nectarine and rose petal. Rose continues on the palate alongside Anjou pear, lemon zest, candied orange peel and dried-thyme flavors that come wrapped in a sheath of shimmering acidity
There are hundreds of white grape varieties grown throughout the world. Some are indigenous specialties capable of producing excellent single varietal wines. Each has its own distinct viticultural characteristics, as well as aroma and flavor profiles.
On the southern edge of the rocky Bay of Biscay in northern Spain, this is Basque country and home to the refreshing and slightly effervescent (usually) white wine, Txakoli. Three subregions compose the larger one: Getariako Txakolina, Bizkaiko Txakolina and Arabako Txakolina. While Hondarribi Zuri and Hondarrabi Beltza are the main grape varieties, other French varieties are scattered throughout the region.
