Another solid vintage of this Basque Country white blend. Light white gold color. Aromas of orchard, tropical, white flowers, citrus fruits and wet stones. Flavors of green apple/pear, lemon/lime, nectarine and kiwi. Distinct hint of chalk dust on the medium (but very bright) finish. Slightly Frizzante, fruit forward and light bodied. Great starter, especially on a warm Summer evening. Thanks for sharing, Chris B! — 3 days ago

All things pink... tart strawberry, tart cherry, and a bit of watermelon... light and spritzy on the palate with a bit of texture and minerals. Always a stunner! — 3 months ago

Txomin Etxaniz – Hondarrabi Zuri – 2023
Getaria – Getariako Txakolina – Spain 🇪🇸

Overview
A classic, refreshing Txakoli from one of the region’s benchmark producers. Light, vibrant, and gently fizzy, this 2023 vintage delivers everything that makes Getaria irresistible: bracing acidity, subtle salinity, and a mouthwatering crunch that resets the palate with every sip.

Aromas & Flavors
Lemon zest, green apple, and fresh pear with hints of sea spray, herbs, and faint white flowers. The signature slight pétillance keeps everything lifted and refreshing.

Mouthfeel
Crisp, zippy, and lightly effervescent. Bright acidity drives the palate, finishing salty-mineral and ultra clean.

Food Pairings
Mediterranean seafood, anchovies, grilled octopus, shrimp tapas, fried calamari, or simple salads with citrus vinaigrette. A natural companion to anything from the coast.

Verdict
Crispy, refreshing, and delicious—an ideal palate cleanser that also shines with food. A joyful, drink-anytime Txakoli with serious charm.

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. — 9 months ago

Pale straw with green reflexes. Some residual co2 visible . This is fresh and direct on the nose , some floral hints , citrus and seashells . There is tension here , and the mineral element is heightened by the prick of co2 . Green apple , lemon rind , quite linear , but there is enough body there , and reasonable salty seaside finish. Fresh and zippy. Well made , individual and thoroughly refreshing. Drink now . — 4 days ago

Medium ruby in color; plums, bell peppers, and paprika on the nose; medium acidity; medium plus tannins; tastes like raspberries, jalapeño, and wet slate with a long finish. It's a really interesting flavor. It's not for everyone, but well made. I like it. — a year ago

Crisp, very dry white wine with loads of green apple, underripe pear, lemon and steely minerality. Vibrant acidity and a saline finish that keeps it ever so clean on the palate. — 4 years ago

Txakolina and oysters seemed like a good idea to me. After a short stop in Spain on our way from the Pyrenees to the Atlantic coast (within the region west of Bordeaux which got devastated by wildfires last week) where we bought some Spanish wine I had an urge to try Txakolina with oysters.
The nose is clean and fresh with green apple and lemon. The palate is very acid driven, fresh, showing apple and lemon but also a very slight effervescence and a tiny feel of sweetness in the mid palate. The finish is fresh clean, acid driven anf refreshing. And it works super well with oysters. Good stuff ! — 11 days ago

Absolute fan of this producer. These are wine of place! Where mountainside cliffs meet the sea and the vines on the cliffs are kissed by the mist of the Cantabrian sea. Their wines have a natural light effervescence a touch of salinity. — 7 months ago
