The nose reveals; pink grapefruit, tangerine, strawberries, watermelon near the rind, hints of rhubarb, blood orange, sea spray, mild volcanic minerals, chalk, light fruit roll-ups, fruit blossoms and pink roses. The body is thick, gluey and shows some frizzante. It’s fresh, lively and easy to drink. Especially, outstanding on a warm day. Candied fruit of; pink grapefruit, tangerine, strawberries, watermelon near the rind, hints of rhubarb & blood orange. Some white spice with a shade of heat, a herbal presence, sea spray, mild volcanic minerals, chalk, light fruit roll-ups, fruit blossoms and pink roses. The acidy is bright and near perfect. The finish is; rich, ripe, lush, balanced fruit & earth and is delicious. Photos of; their vineyards on the Bay of Biscay, 5th generation Winemaker- Ignacio Ameztoi, fruit ready to go the Bodega and another shot of the Bay of Biscay with fruit on the vine.

Shimmering orange-pink. High-pitched red currant, strawberry, orange zest and a bright mineral element on the incisive nose. Lithe and penetrating on the palate, offering intense red berry and citrus fruit flavors that pick up a sexy floral quality as the wine stretches out. Delivers a solid punch of flavor but comes off lithe, betraying no excess fat and finishing very long and precise, with a lingering suggestion of bitter citrus pith. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, August 2019)

Tart, spritz, watermelon, menthol, mineral, saline. Probably the inspiration for hard seltzers!

Made for the last days of summer. Perfect balance of dry minerality, currant, and effervescence. Such a great producer.

Adam recommended it highly, and the bottle price was really favorable compared to the price per glass, so we bought the bottle. Good call.
