Akareggi Txiki, Lasalde Elkartea, Balea, Basque Region, Spain, Txakolina, 2021

$21.99

Akareggi Txiki is a traditional winery with vineyards existing for generations.  They grow only indigenous grapes on about 17 hectares. They make this uniquely Basque thirst-quenching Txakoli with bright acidity, pronounced minerality, and slight effervescence. The palate falls somewhere between lemon zest and green apple with a distinct grassy aroma. A no-brainer for white anchovies or cured meats.
