Wine: Gorka IzagirreType: WHITEVarietal: 50% Hondarrabi Zuri 50% Hondarrabi ZerratiaRegion: Basque ContryABV: 13% Enology Founded in 2005 by Gorka Izagirre and his nephew (renowned chef Eneko Atxa), this family-run estate revitalizes Bizkaiko Txakoli tradition. The vineyards, spread across multiple small plots, face southeast, benefiting from gentle morning sun and atlantic breezes. Harvest is manual in October. Wines are fermented varietal-wise in stainless steel, with Hondarrabi Zerratia often aged on lees for enhanced complexity. Tasting Notes Style: Crisp, vibrant, and mineral-driven—quintessential Atlantic white wine Aromas: Fresh orchard fruit like apple, citrus, and subtle floral tones Palate: Dry and textured with a signature light bitterness and energetic finish, reflecting the terroir’s freshness and complexity Food Pairing A delightful companion to fresh seafood (especially sardines or shellfish), pintxos, asparagus, and light appetizers. Its lively acidity and mineral edge make it perfect for light, maritime cuisine. Show more
