Tantaka Txacoli

23.50

Tantaka is a white wine aged on lees made with the Hondarribi Zuri variety in the D.O. Arabako-txakolina (Basque Country) by Juanjo Tellaetxe.

Juanjo Tellaetxe which happens to be a priest and a shepherd made his dream a reality when he implemented his work philosophy in the Arrastaria Valley vineyards (Álava) to make honest wines with a strong local character. To do that, the Tantaka winery is committed to using native varieties, cultivated in an environmentally-respectful way and with minimum intervention in the winery.

The soils are characterised by their alluvial and semi-deep character, with a climate that ranges from Atlantic to continental, depending on the vintage

Pair it with seafood, baked fish, vegetables and pork.
