Bodegas Txomin Etxaniz, D.O. Getariako Txakolina

Always at the top of the list when it comes to quality Txakoli (pronounced: chak-o-lee) production, Txomin’s wines are typical of the fiercely Basque “Txakolina Getariako” style. The Etxaniz family estate is located in the heart of Getaria, west along the coast from San Sebasitian, and is historically one of the oldest, with vineyard plantings and the production of Txakoli since 1649. The Txueka Etxanix family have played an integral role in the modernisation, recognition and creation of the Denomination of Origin Getariako Txakolina in 1989.

This is extremely good Getariako Txakoli and faithfully reflects this premium region of Txakoli (pronounced: chak -o -lee) production. Attractive brilliant straw hues, with a mid-to-low fizz spritz on palate. The nose is alluring and delicate with apple, cucumber and some light pear perfume. The palate shows more fullness and structure; gentle fruit sweetness gives a bright fruit spread on entry, and it gains nice gentle tartness, facilitating a poised and impeccably balanced finish. Clean, well composed spring fruits, beautifully spiced; great drinking. This is classic Txakoli – exactly what you should expect: correct, clear, delicious.
