Ameztoi Rubentis Txakolina Rosé — Getariako Txakolina, Basque Country 2025
Rosé Txakoli is a rare thing — very few producers in the Basque Country have ventured into it, and Ameztoi's Rubentis is widely regarded as the benchmark. Made from a balanced blend of the two native Basque grapes — Hondarrabi Zuri (white) and Hondarrabi Beltza (red) — grown on the steep, terraced hillsides above the Bay of Biscay in Getaria, Rubentis is a wine of genuine originality: a rosé that maintains all the hallmarks of great Txakoli — racy acidity, fine natural carbonation, and Atlantic freshness — while adding the aromatic lift and color of the red grape.
The 2025 pours a pale pink with shades of fuchsia and a fine, elegant bead. The nose is fine and sophisticated — citrus, menthol, and a delicate floral lift. On the palate, it's harmonious and refreshing, with a bright acidity and a distinctive note of strawberry sour caramel that makes it unlike any other rosé on the shelf. Serve well-chilled and pour with a slight splash to release the carbonation — the traditional Basque way.
"A surprising and delicious creation that maintains the acidity, freshness, and fine carbonation characteristic of Txakoli — one of the rare rosés of the Basque Country." — Ameztoi
