Description

Txakoli is a household name in the Spanish Basque Country, where this crisp white wine is a popular accompaniment to tapas and fish dishes. But not all Txakolis are created equal.

So close to the cool ocean, grape ripeness can sometimes be a problem, especially if the vineyard yield is high. Txakoli can therefore taste light and quite tart, necessarily with a residual sweetness.

Doniene Gorrondona is among the best producers and harvests the indigenous Hondarrabi Zuri grapes when ripe. The team also hand-harvests for an initial selection in the vineyard. Fermentation takes place with wild yeasts, and the wine is then aged on the lees.

You can taste the result in this beautiful white wine that goes well with mussels, for example.

Drinking at

A beautiful dry white wine to drink as a refreshing aperitif, with tapas or light (starter) dishes with shellfish.

Tasting note

A subtly fragrant white wine with aromas of green apple, pear, peach, and white blossom. Light-bodied, beautifully fruity, and crisply dry in flavor with nuances of toast and almond in the lingering finish.

Shelf life

At its best up to about 3 years after harvest date.
