Gorrondona Txakoli Doniene

Gorrondona was created by a bunch of young Basque residents who are elevating the classic, lean, dry, Txakoli style from the tourist fodder poured from great height in tiny bars along the lanes of San Sebastian into serious wine.

Concentrating on organic farming, being careful with clonal and site selection and forgoing commercial yeasts. Although thankfully this doesn't prevent their wines from being seriously good in when consumed alongside huge helping of Pinxhos in rowdy atmospheres.  

Gorrondona Txakoli Doniene is made from the traditional Basque varietal Hondurabi Zuri 100% which is becoming more and more popular instead of blends today.

Doniene shows that notch above the classic wine with more complexity and a wonderfully fresh acid line. Think green herbs, fresh lime, white flowers and a lovely salty acidity on the palate.
