The wine region of Arabako Txakolina
The smallest and most continental of the three Txakoli DOs (2001), nestled in the Ayala valley in Álava, inland. Hondarrabi Zuri is the almost exclusive signature white: dry, light (~11% abv) and taut with lively citrus, green apple, fresh herbs and a stony mineral hint — more marked than saline — incisive acidity and a light prickle. Pronounced thermal swings bringing aromatic finesse. A refreshing seafood wine.
The wine region of El Pais Vasco
Spanish Basque Country (Euskadi) on the Cantabrian coast near Bilbao, humid oceanic climate. Hondarrabi Zuri is the signature white for Txakoli: dry, lively and slightly sparkling with citrus, green apple, white flowers and saline iodine notes, cutting acidity and low alcohol - poured from height to release the pétillant, the pintxos companion. Hondarrabi Beltza for light reds and crisp rosés. Three DOs: Getariako, Bizkaiko and Arabako Txakolina.
The word of the wine: Lamb's lettuce
Characteristic of fleshy and consistent wines giving the impression of being chewed.
