Txakoli, Txakolina
The 2006 Rubentis was awarded 93 Points by Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar. While we shay away from point scales, we share the IWC's enthusiastic appreciation of the wine:
"2006 Ameztoi Rubentis Txakolina
Getariako Txakolina
...a 50/50 blend of hondarribi beltza and hondarribi zuri, for those keeping score
Pale pink. Ethereal lime, blood orange, redcurrant, white flower and mineral aromas offer remarkable precision. Weightless, lightly spritzy citrus pith and wild strawberry flavors are deepened by a cherry pit quality that insinuates rather than declares itself. If this were from Champagne, with this clarity and precision it would cost $300. Spring this on your friends who find red Txakoli too mainstream". - S.T. (IWC Sept/Oct 07)
The 2007 has just arrived and is sure to disappear in quick fashion.
