  Bodegas Berroja Bizkaiko Txakolina Berroia 2008

  Snoothrank: Starting at $15^.99

  So fresh and so clean….The pride of San Sebastian, Hondarrabi makes bright and crisp wines with pear, granny smith apple and minerals. The long dry finish sneaks up on you.

  Gurrutxaga Txakoli Rose Bizkaiko Txakolina 2008

  Snoothrank:

  A rosé with a bit of bite - tart fruit and a bit of effervescence. This effervescence is lovely and I kind of wish all rosé wines had them. Totally puzzling on the nose. Lightly candied cherry blossoms... if there is such a thing. Hints of smoke. Spice. And something really odd... Read moreA rosé with a bit of bite - tart fruit and a bit of effervescence. This effervescence is lovely and I kind of wish all rosé wines had them. Totally puzzling on the nose. Lightly candied cherry blossoms... if there is such a thing. Hints of smoke. Spice. And something really odd that reminds me of Beaujolais. Is it banana? Bubble gum. My nose is perplexed. Similar interesting and perplexing flavors on the palate. Clean and crisp on the finish. We had this with shrimp tacos and it worked well. Even though this wine has some really interesting (and puzzling) elements, don't let that put you off. This is a very lovely wine that I think non-wine-geeky types would like as well.    (hide)

  Itsas Mendi Bizkaiko Txakolina 2008

  Snoothrank:

  A wonderful and unique wine names for vineyards at the seacoast (Itsas) and in the mountains (Mendi). Fresh floral aromas and flavors of pear, white peach, citrus and grapefruit; well-balanced, with a refreshing and persistent finish.

  Itsas Mendi Bizkaiko Txakolina 2005

  Snoothrank:

  Limestone on the nose. Lots of sparkle and minerals, spritz, grass, and magnesium. Finishes with a powdered sugar note. Outstanding value.
