Description

From: Zarautz, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country, Spain|
Varietal: Hondarrabi Zuri

Taste: Pale straw with green reflections, the wine shows a slight natural effervescence in the glass. Aromatically, it opens with sharp notes of green apple, lime zest, and fresh herbs, followed by a hint of crushed oyster shell and a faint note of white flowers.

Pairing: The high acidity, light body, and gentle spritz of Txakoli make this wine a natural fit for foods that highlight brine, freshness, and crunch. Start with general pairing principles: match the wine’s acidity with vinegar-based dressings or citrus-forward dishes, balance its low alcohol content with delicate textures, and pair it with salt, seafood, and green herbs.

About: Txakoli Primo is situated in the coastal Basque town of Zarautz, located in the province of Gipuzkoa, within Spain’s autonomous Basque Country. The town, renowned for its maritime culture and gastronomic traditions, lies just west of San Sebastián and boasts a striking Atlantic climate that significantly influences the region’s wines. This is txakoli country, where sharp, briny, bright whites have long been part of local culture. Primo is a modern example of a small, terroir-conscious producer reimagining the traditional Basque white wine style with clarity and freshness.
