Ameztoi Spanish Red
A light Basque red, stocked in small quantity in Commack.
The story behind Ameztoi
Txakolina is the Basque Country's bright, low alcohol wine style, made mostly in Getaria and nearby coastal towns from local grapes like Hondarribia and Hondarribi Zuri. The red version, often called Txakoli, pours light and fresh with tart red fruit and a faint spritz, and it is traditionally poured from a height to wake it up.
We stock Ameztoi Txakolina in Commack in very small quantity, one or two bottles at a time, so call ahead if you want to be sure it is on the shelf.
