Txampian Txakoli Rosado

2022 Balea Rosé Txakoli 

Producer: Txakolindegi Ugabe

Region: Getaria, Spain

Varietals: 60% HONDARRABI ZURI + 40% HONDARRABI BELTZA

Source: 100% estate-grown

Method: Hand-harvested. Native yeast fermentation in stainless steel. Fermentation is allowed to build pressure leaving a natural spritz. Aged 6 months on the lees, bottled unfiltered.

Flavor Notes and Pairings: Super-light, ultra-refreshing Txakoli rose from Spain's Basque Country with zippy acid, bright red fruit, and a lightly floral finish … the mineral and saline qualities here (as well as the very subtle/slight spritz-y bubbles) are trademarks of the Txakoli category.  Perfect for outdoor drinking and always a crowd-pleaser!
