About this wine

To produce the Txakoli Bodega Agerre, the Hondarrabi Zuri grapes were pressed at low pressure and the free run juice was transferred into stainless-steel tanks. Fermentation took place at cool temperatures with indigenous yeasts for 18-20 days. Following fermentation, the wine was kept in stainless steel at controlled temperatures of 8-9°C until bottling to retain the variety’s zesty and vibrant aromatics.

The 20 to 30-year-old vines are planted on soils comprised of clay, sand and limestone within east-facing vineyards that help to maximise their exposure to the sun and to protect them from westerly winds. The proximity to the Atlantic means that the climate here is humid, mild and wet. As such, the vines are trained to a height of nearly two metres to provide the best possible ventilation, while the steep slopes and sandy soils, rich in organic matter, allow for excellent drainage.

Emilio Agerre is the family’s third generation to make traditional-style Txakoli from the Hondarrabi Zuri grape variety. The Ostolaza family’s 15 hectares of vineyards are planted on hillsides overlooking the medieval fishing village of Getaria and the Bay of Biscay, just a few miles from San Sebastián. The 20 to 30-year-old vines lie on east-facing vineyards, maximising their sun exposure and protecting them from westerly winds.
