The wine

Rich aromas of crisp apple, grapefruit and pear are enhanced by a subtle, refreshing spritz. Balanced and fresh, with well-integrated crisp acidity, mineral and saline notes through to a long, mouthwatering finish. Txakoli as the Basque coast intends it.

Txakoli is the Basque wine: bone dry, high in acidity, low in alcohol and traditionally poured from a height to raise a brief spritz. It was nearly extinct in the 1980s before a determined revival. Hondarrabi Zuri turns out not to be one variety but a group, several related to Courbu of south-west France.

The producer

Hiruzta is a Txakoli producer at Hondarribia in the Basque Country, on the Bidasoa estuary where Spain meets France.

Txakoli, or Txakolina, is the Basque wine: bone dry, high in acidity, low in alcohol and traditionally poured from a height into a wide glass to raise a brief spritz. It was nearly extinct in the 1980s, down to a few dozen hectares, before a determined revival; there are now three separate appellations, of which Getariako Txakolina is the largest.

Hondarrabi Zuri is the principal grape, and DNA work has shown it is not one variety but a group, several of them related to Courbu of south-west France. The vineyards sit on steep coastal slopes facing the Bay of Biscay, and the wine was made for the anchovies, hake and grilled fish of that coast.
