Located near the Basque fishing village of Getaria, Ignacio Ameztoi’s vineyards are cut into incredibly steep terraced slopes overlooking the Bay of Biscay and the Atlantic. Ignacio is the seventh generation of Ameztoi to carry on the tradition of producing top Txacolis from his 20-ha vineyard which is planted with the native grapes Hondarrabi Zuri and Hondarrabi Beltza. The vines are trained on high trellises and the vineyards are not weeded and no chemical sprays are used.
This dry and refreshing Txacoli Rosado is made mainly of Hondarabbi Beltza and works well with seafood dishes. A light salmon-pink in colour. On the nose, aromas of summer red fruits, citrus peel and rose petals. On the palate, bone-dry and fresh with further red fruit flavours leading to a short and crisp finish. Brilliant food wine!
