Description
Beautifully refreshing, crisp white wine that pairs perfectly with seafood. Lightly effervescent, one of defining qualities of wines from this part of Atlantic Spain. Txomin Etxaniz is owned and was founded by the Txueka family. One of the most historic and important families in this region, there is documentation showing that the family has been producing wine near the town of Getaria since 1649, around when the town was founded. In 1980, Inaki Txueka started a movement with the goal of revitalizing Txacoli wines from Getaria and was a leader in the foundation of the official D.O. Getariako Txakolina in 1989. The Txueka family currently works exclusively with the indigenous grape varieties of Hondarrabi Zuri and Hondarrabi Beltza, planted between 1915 and 2000 on pergolas and terraced trellises. The slopes that the vines are planted on are incredibly steep, so where pergolas cannot be used, the family plants on trellis. The winery and vineyards are only located 100m from the Atlantic. The resulting wines are beautifully refreshing, high acid white wines that pair flawlessly with seafood.
