The smoky and leesy 2019 Marko Gure Arbasoak has a spectacular nose and a bright yellow color. It's a blend of 45% Hondarribi Zuri Zerratia (Petit Courbu), 40% Hondarribi Zuri (Gros Courbu) and 15% Izkiota Txikia (Petit Manseng) that fermented in 30% stainless steel and 70% used barriques with indigenous yeasts and matured for seven months with the lees. Again, this is more about the soil, herbs, plants and spices than fruit and has a profile that reminds me of some ouillé wines from Jura. It has tension and minerality, very tasty flavors and a long, clean finis with an almost salty touch. This is stunning and should age nicely in bottle.12,000 bottles were filled in June 2020.

The 2017 Marko Gure Arbasoak is a blend of 45% Hondarribi Zuri Zerratia (Petit Courbu), 45% Hondarribi Zuri (Gros Courbu) and 10% Izkiota Txikia (Petit Manseng) fermented in a combination of stainless steel and used barriques with indigenous yeasts and matured for eight moths with the lees. This has the tension I was looking for, with ripe yellow fruit but a sharper and more mineral palate (despite the slightly higher alcohol). I would never guess this was a Txakoli if tasted blind, as it has a round and creamy texture and completely different flavors and aromas. A white wine of character. Gure Arbasoak means ""Our Ancestors" in the Basque language. 5,300 bottles were filled in July 2018.
