      Tasting Notes and Description
      This wine has a great personality, well balanced acidity and a great palate, it is fresh, vivid, with fruity aromas and sea breeze notes. The aromatic intensity is well-distributed in the mouth and round on the palate, where it leaves a pleasant, vibrant and zesty finish.

      A fun wine to enjoy as an appetizer. It combines very well with good quality fish, Iberian pork based appetisers, fresh seafood, salads, rice dishes and with delicious grilled fish.

      Txakoli Katxiña is a white wine produced using the Hondarrabi Zuri variety of grape, a local variety only cultivated in this area. Certified by the Getariako Txakolina D.O., they make Txakoli Katxiña a product overflowing with personality.

      During the wine making process the fermentation is stopped hence this slight characteristic fizz you find in the wine, especially in Getariako DO.

      A family owned winery, they own two great restaurants where they offer stunning grilled meats and fish. By selling wines to the customers they realised there was a need for a quality Txakoli. Hence the father and two children looked for land and bought and planted subsequently the indigenous white varietal Hondarrabi Zuri.

      This grape variety was brought over from the northeast of Europe in the Middle Ages. The monks that followed the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route created monasteries with vineyards as they travelled, and with the passage of time this variety gained a foothold in our land of sea and mountains.

      They boast eight hectares of vineyards surrounding the winery building. The grapes are growing on terraced trellises and arbors, all south-facing and on hillsides descending to the mouth the River Oria. Family owned fields are caressed by the winds coming off the Cantabrian Sea. This enclave was specially chosen for the optimal ripening of their grapes. They select the best grapes right in the vineyard, carrying the clusters in baskets to the winery.
      These unique conditions give their Txakoli the freshness and vitality that make it genuine.
