Izar-Leku Hondarrabi Zuri Sparkling Txakoli
$34.99
2016 - This is sharp, mineral and saline, bone dry and clean, precise, from a slightly warmer year than 2015 in the zone. It's slightly different, quite pure, with some nutty undertones, with a slightly rounder palate and quite long. The most striking feature of this is its salinity in the finish. Not surprisingly, the vines are some 200 meters away from the sea! They were helped by Raphaël Bérêche from Champagne fame to produce this sparkling wine.--93pts Wine Advocate
