Txakoli Rosé 2024

Txakoli Rosé Primo is produced in the Basque Country, Northern Spain, within the designated Txakoli (or Txakolina) DO region. This area is known for its cool Atlantic climate and proximity to the Bay of Biscay, which influences the fresh and vibrant character of the wines.

The wine is typically made from indigenous Basque grape varieties, with a focus on Hondarrabi Beltza for rosé production. It may also include other local varieties depending on the producer’s blend.

The grapes are harvested early to preserve acidity and freshness. The rosé is produced by limited skin contact to extract a delicate pink hue and subtle fruit aromas. Fermentation is carried out at controlled low temperatures to maintain aromatic intensity. The wine is typically bottled young to emphasize its crisp and lively profile.
