Akarregi Txiki, Getariako Txakolina, Pays Basque, Spain 2020
100% Hondarribi Zuri
GREEN APPLE, LIME, UNRIPE GREEN GRAPES, SPRITZY
Lasalde Elkartea comes from a cattle farming family, but left this tradition to follow his love of Basque winemaking. His phenomenal value in the native style, Txakoli, layers signature minerality with the blazing acidity that we would expect. Glimmering, green zestiness plays off of bright golden fruit, yet it’s remarkably clean- minimalist perfection in wine form. Everything’s impeccably balanced and in just the right place- tasteful and tasty! The perfect accompaniment to tapas or sushi.
Serving Suggestion: Seafood paella. Fried oysters or fried green tomatoes w/ remoulade. Chicken croquetas w/ espelette pepper jelly.
