Gaintza Txakolina 2021 Spain 750ml
From 100% estate-grown indigenous varieties Hondarrabi Zuri as well as the maritime variety Gros Manseng, this is a classic Getaria-style Txakolina, with light efferevescence and brilliant, refreshing acidity. Low in alcohol, this is beach wine par excellence.
Grape: 85% Hondarrabi Zuri, 15% Gros Manseng. Sustainably farmed vines planted in 1978 to clay and limestone soils, at 75m (246 ft) elevation.
Tasting Notes: Bright green-yellow. On the nose, high toned aromas of lemon, quince, green apple and sorrel are overlaid with sea spray and stony mineral notes. On the palate, puckering acidity and effervescence lend a practically gulpable appeal, with bright meyer lemon, apple and green herbs. Finishes salty and clean, begging for another sip.
ABV: 11.5%
