Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Pale yellow with hints of green. Bright and clean in the glass. Fine bubbles due to the low-temperature elaboration method. A blend of fresh aromas with herbal notes. White fruit is prominent, such as green apple with lemon citrus undertones. On the palate a fresh and intense start. Lightly sparkling with well-integrated acidity. Pleasant in the mouth leaving a fresh sensation with citrus notes. Gaintza txakolina is a traditional and authentic wine. This expressive txakolina has a low alcohol content and balanced acidity. It is made with grapes from the best vineyards in the region, and its unique character makes it our most expressive wine, with an unmistakable touch of Atlantic salinity.

Professional Ratings

  • 91
    Pale yellow in the glass, this wine has aromas of peach and honeydew melon. Although it is a still wine, it hits the tongue with bright acidity and a feeling of effervescence alongside flavors of grapefruit, lemon zest and a touch of white chocolate.

Gaintza, Spain
Gaintza Winery Video

The vineyards and cellar are looked after by a small family team. They plant and care for the vines, harvest the grapes, and make and sell the wine. Gaintza has grown throughout the generations and we have hired qualified staff to ensure our business evolves. The txakoli we produce together year after year has created a special bond between all of us. Gaintza has a long and proud history.

Four generations of the Lazkano family have prepared, produced and distributed txakoli. The family's great-grandfather José Antonio already made txakoli—for family consumption and sale in neighbouring villages—from our vines in the Golindo country house. From 1923 when the Gaintza cellar was set up through to the latest extension in 2012, we have undergone constant transformation with an eye to the future.

There are hundreds of white grape varieties grown throughout the world. Some are indigenous specialties capable of producing excellent single varietal wines. Each has its own distinct viticultural characteristics, as well as aroma and flavor profiles.

On the southern edge of the rocky Bay of Biscay in northern Spain, this is Basque country and home to the refreshing and slightly effervescent (usually) white wine, Txakoli. Three subregions compose the larger one: Getariako Txakolina, Bizkaiko Txakolina and Arabako Txakolina. While Hondarribi Zuri and Hondarrabi Beltza are the main grape varieties, other French varieties are scattered throughout the region.
