On the southern edge of the rocky Bay of Biscay in northern Spain, this is Basque country and home to a slightly effervescent white wine, Txakoli. Pale lemon color with aromas of stone and citrus fruits with a light spritz in the glass. On the palate flavors of green apple and lemon citrus, vivid briny acidity with floral notes. Medium finish ending with fruit and spicy mineral character. — 10 months ago

Zippy and only 11%! Chilled it comes off as minerally and acidic. As it warms it picks up some stone fruit and green apple notes. Crisp, delicious, and easy to drink. Would buy again. — 19 hours ago

Did You Know?
Getaria’s Txakoli traditionally has natural spritz because of cool fermentation and minimal handling, preserving dissolved CO₂. This tiny fizz is part of what makes Txakoli so uniquely vibrant and mouthwatering. — 21 days ago
