Ameztoi, Txakoli Rosé "Hijo de Rubentis", Getariako Txakolina, Pays Basque, Spain 2017 50% Hondaribbi Zuri, 50% Hondaribbi Beltza
TART PINK RASPBERRY & LIME ZEST, MONUMENTAL MINERAL, WAXY LEES In the tradition of such classics as “Son of Godzilla,” the “Hijo de (son of) Rubentis” is a Méthode Champenoise sequel truly worthy of Amestoi’s cult classic Txakolina rosé. In typical fashion, the grapes are harvested slightly underripe to hammer home the signature gleam of acidity, minerality, Atlantic-ness, and leanness that Guetarian wines are famous for. The full-on sparkle (rather than typical spritz) enhances the impression of body and complexity while doing nothing to diminish the characteristic refreshment we love. Txakolin-dantza! Serving Suggestion: Shangurro (Basque-style stuffed crab) w/ red pepper flakes, black pepper, & white wine. Spider rolls & other soft-shell crab preparations.
