Description
Ameztoi Txakolina is one of the top producers of Getariako Txakolina (Basque Country). The winery owns 20 hectares of vines in the best location. From the vineyards one can see the town of San Sebastian and understand the influence of the Atlantic Ocean on this vineyard site. The Ameztoi family has been making txakolina in Getaria for seven generations, utilizing the indigenous white Hondarribi Zuri and red Hondarribi Beltza grapes to craft light, crisp wine bottled with residual carbon to give it its signature natural spritz.
Winemaker Notes
This light, salty white has a refreshing spritz loaded with brisk grapefruit and green apple notes finishing with mouth-watering acidity.
Food
Pairs well with all kinds of seafood and fish. Excellent with oysters, Sushi or tempura fish.
Critical Acclaim
91 points - Vinous
"Pale, green-tinged straw. Bright and sharply focused on the nose, displaying fresh citrus and orchard fruit flavors complemented by a chalky mineral top note. Chewy, lithe and focused on the palate, offering vibrant lemon zest and green apple flavors and a spicy ginger nuance. A floral note emerges with air and carries through a long, taut finish that echoes the mineral note."
