Gorka Izagirre Txakoli Pack

Pack 6 botellas Txakoli Gorka Izagirre

1 Bottle 42 Zura

42 Zura was born in the wineries of Gorka Izagirre from the desire to wrap our Hondarrabi Zerratia variety with a clean and light oak that respects the character and personality of our grape. The must ferments in a 5,000-liter French oak vat, where, after turning into wine, it is aged on its fine lees. It is bathed for 10 months on a daily basis until it reaches the desired combination of fruit, wood and lees, and then goes on to mature in the bottle for long months. A wine with its own personality, refined and full-bodied that combines perfectly with the most varied dishes that will grow in nuances and intensity over time.

TASTING NOTES
Golden yellow color with greenish reflections; clean and intense aromas of ripe white fruit and citrus that are reminiscent of pink grapefruit. We also appreciate the toasted bread and pastries that denote its passage through wood. Powerful and glyceric on the palate with a ripe apple base together with notes of citrus and tropical fruits accompanied by subtle smoked notes together with toasted and butter notes, all wrapped in a fresh acidity that promises long life and a fantastic evolution. Intense and tasty.

1 Bottle G22

Gorka Izagirre G22 txakoli is the fruit of patience, tasting and observation. It took several years to create this special blend. In the Txakoli G22 the best of the winery’s estates have been brought together. The aging has been carried out on its lees for several months to obtain a wine with a fantastic evolutionary capacity.

TASTING NOTES
On the face of it, the Txakoli G22 is clean, iridescent, with an extremely elegant presence. Yellow garment with green, intense and bright reflections that highlight its freshness. Intense and persistent on the nose. A start of pear, ripe apple and pink grapefruit. Second level, greater complexity combining white flower essences with hints of lemon balm, linden, white nettle and fennel seeds. All this covered by the touches of pastry that its long aging in lees provides. In the mouth, gentle and subtle attack. The always pleasant sensation of fruit gives way to floral and balsamic essences.

1 Bottle Gorka Izagirre Young

Representative of the modern txakolis of Bizkaia, Gorka Izagirre is formed by the assembly of 50% of our indigenous varieties Hondarrabi Zuri and Hondarrabi Zerratia, obtained from 21 hectares of vineyards that we cultivate with care, in 10 plots spread over 7 municipalities scattered throughout Bizkaia.

A differentiated elaboration of each plot, allows us to extract all its potential in order to achieve the perfect pieces that assemble a fresh, cheerful, aromatic wine but with a body and structure that surprises when taken.

TASTING NOTES
At sight it has a nice straw yellow color, with green reflections and metallic iridescence. On the nose it combines a base of fresh apple with the herbaceous of ferns with nuances of white flower (Tilo) and a subtle touch of citrus. Its passage through the mouth is round, glyceride, displaying a fresh sensation of fruit that leads to a finish of slightly bitter dried fruit perfectly integrated into the whole.

1 Bottle ILUN (red txakoli)

Txakoli ILUN by Gorka Izagirre is the latest creation from this Larrabetzu winery (Bizkaia). It has been made 100% with Hondarribi Beltza, a very little known and endangered native variety. It stands out for its freshness, uniqueness and its pure Atlantic character. ILUN ‘dark’ and ‘god of the night’ in Basque takes us to a little-known part of the world of txakoli, to a place that was forgotten, and that little by little is recovering its place.

TASTING NOTES
Txakoli ILUN has a light robe, has a cherry color with a beautiful purple rim. It has a high aromatic intensity, marking from the beginning the typicality of the variety and its Atlantic origin. Its herbaceous nature is covered by aromas of red fruits such as currant and raspberry and with an elegantly spicy touch. The attack is light and very friendly, with a soft and velvety mid palate. The perfectly balanced mouth is full of red fruit and herbaceous flavors with a fresh balsamic finish. A very easy to drink wine that invites you to have the next glass.

PAIRING
Txakoli ILUN pairs perfectly with both cold cuts and white meats as well as fish.
