Magnum Monday!
Itsasmendi “7” Bizkaiko Txakolina
Gernika, País Vasco, Spain
We’re going Basque to help cool us down on this beautiful Monday. Itsasmendi began producing this blend in 2003 with the goal to make Txakoli with more body, structure, and aging potential as well as showcasing acidity. Goal achieved! The “7” 2017 Magnum we’ve opened today is absolutely shining with elegance, complexity, and verve. Named “7” because it was vinified in vat #7 and aged on the lees for 7 months. 7 is also a number associated with idealism and knowledge- a little bit of magic in a glass.
Delightfully salty and full of life, this full fruited mineral darling is our new favorite that both wakes and satiates! 80% Hondarrabi Zuri & 20% Riesling organically, sustainably, and precisely crafted. Pop by for a glass today!
