Region: Getariako, Spain

Varietal: 85% Hondarrabi Zuri, 15% Chardonnay

Tasting Notes: This Txakoli wine boasts high acidity, salinity, and an intriguing minerality that gives it its refreshingly clean taste. White peach, green apple, citrus and white flowers lead to the fresh, tangy essence of the Basque coast - slightly chalky, suffused with hints of citrus, reminiscent of the ocean breeze that caresses its vines.

Producer: Mokoroa is a new winery located in the neighborhood of Urteta in Zarautz, Spain. The winery was founded in 2008 by Jose Antonio Mokoroa and his family. Located in the provence of Gipuzkoa, in the Basque Country it is situated in Zarautz next to Getaria, where Getariako Txakolina D.O. gets its name. Getariako Txakolina extends throughout the province of Gipuzkoa. This Denomination of Origin is one of the three, along with Araba and Bizkaia, authorized to produce Txakoli in the Basque Country.

Vineyard & Winemaking: Mokoroa owns 6 hectares of vineyards, all trellised and on slopes, facing the Cantabrian sea. Hondarrabi Zuri is the local variety that occupies most of the vineyards. However, there is also a percentage of Chardonnay. Both are harvested when they reach the optimal ripening criteria to produce a top quality Txakoli.
