“Pear and lime, with florals and a flinty tingle.”
Basa Lore has been producing Txakoli since 1930, now in the 4th generation with Jose, Begoña and daughter Nerea. Such was their love for the terroir that together with 5 other wineries they founded the D.O. Getariako (Getar-e-ahko) Txakolina, predominantly focusing their winemaking on Hondarrabi Zuri & Beltza, indigenous grapes first planted in the region in 1425, as well as traditional methods to yield an old-style Txakoli. Precious to the Basque, Basa Lore wines are non-intervention, no sulfite added and native yeast. The trio have ensured an authenticity to their Txakoli that is ingrained in the history of the Basque country.
Also - vegan and sustainable! …and a perfect match for any seafood.
