Here we have the is the rose version of the famous Basque white wine. It is a natural partner to the abundant local seafood. Grapes are picked by hand. Fermentation is in stainless steel vats with temperature control using natural yeast. Fresh red cherry and cranberry on the nose. Refreshing in the mouth with a slight spritz which is typical to Txakoli wines.
Notes on the producer
The family have a deep respect for their land and the local traditions but they're also looking ahead, adopting modern technology to improve quality. They own 25 hectares of vineyards, bathed by the fresh Cantabrian sea air, but protected by the Garate hill. They have a mix of older planting on high pergolas and newer terraced plantings. They mainly grow Hondarribi Zuri, the most common and traditional grape in Txakoli production.
