The name Antxiola refers to a famous fortified home in the nearby town of Orio that was part of the walls fortifying the town. A rendering of that home is on the label of this wine. Admiral Antxiola was one of the most famous owners and written records of the house date back to 1555 – but we know the house is older than that.

Along the Gipuzkoan coast, the hondarrabi zuri grape (white) and hondarrabi beltza grape (red), rise above the humid ground, that grants Txakoli Zudugarai with a perfect coolness and its noticiable minerality. Perfect freshness, with a juicy start, citric and filled with a salty end. The Basque pleasure.

90% Hondurrabi Zuri and 10% Hondurrabi Beltza. The age range of the vines are 10 - 40 years old. They have 2 hectares near the coast on rolling hills.

All work in the vineyards is done by hand including harvest. The vines are planted on the sunny sides of the hills to keep them dry and free of rot and fungal diseases. The wine is bottled while still young to capture some of the natural CO2 left in the wine giving it a slight effervescence.
