Spanish Whites and Reds Offline (Rincon 38, Mpls, MN): Pale gold color. PNP, Drank 1 glass over an hour. This had just a little spritz, the nose shows grapefruit, lime, some tropical notes, mineral. The palate is citrus: grapefruit and lime, light, crisp, strong mineral streak, nice finish. This was a gem.

The Iberian Peninsula (My apartment): Racy and fresh - plenty of citrus and minerality, as all txakolinas should have. However, this one's a little on the light side - not quite as bracing as I'd hoped. Tanzer is the one critic I've found whose tastes often mirror mine, but I can't see the 91 score on this. $16.

Clear white gold. Lifted lemon/lime nose. Some citrusy notes on the palate with bright acidity & a fresh mouthfeel. Salinity on the back of the palate. Clean & fresh, some slight grassy notes on the finish.

Ok wine from Basque Country. Mineral nose. Crisp and clean on palate. Nice finish.

Full on the palate with citrus zing at the finish. Long finish. Would definitely buy again.

How do you pronounce this? Light, crisp, zippy, lemon, sea, grapefruit. Very Sauv Blanc like. I pronounce it a great accompaniment to summer.
