Description: The Ziaboga ‘Askizu Mendia’ Getariako Txakolina is a pure expression of the Basque coast, sourced from the Askizu Mendia vineyard—a gently sloping, south-facing site just steps from the sea. Though not directly ocean-facing, the vineyard is perched at 0–100 meters of elevation, where the salty Atlantic breeze and limestone-rich, sandy clay soils shape the wine’s vibrant character. Nestled in the rolling green hills of Getaria, where the Atlantic winds shape the vineyards and the Cantabrian Sea sets the rhythm of life, Ziaboga is a tribute to Basque winemaking heritage. Founded by Estebe Salgado, a San Sebastián native with a lifelong passion for the region's wine, Ziaboga is dedicated to expressing the purity and energy of Hondarrabi Zuri from the finest coastal vineyards. A touch of natural effervescence—true to the classic Txakoli style—gives it an irresistible energy, enhancing the crisp citrus, green apple, and saline minerality that define this exhilarating, thirst-quenching wine. For the Askizu Mendia bottling, Estebe selects fruit from a stunning hillside site (Single Vineyard site) with ideal exposure to the sea, producing a Txakoli that balances a remarkable density from the grape. Working alongside the esteemed Ostolaza family of Gañeta, the estate focuses on pristine farming and precise, low-intervention cellar work to craft wines that are as vibrant and electric as the landscape itself. With each bottle, Ziaboga captures the salty breeze, bright acidity, and unmistakable character that define the wines of Getariako Txakolina.
