    This low-alcohol Basque rosé starts off funky. Pickled, peppery, herbaceous aromas lead to a tart, acidic palate that's not unusual for this style of wine. Sour, herbal, peppery flavors repeat in lighter form on the finish.

    This winery makes one of the better, more consistent white Txakolis, but this rosé is fruitless and smells of grass and green beans. A spritzy palate similarly tastes of beans and bell pepper, and the finish maintains that vegetal character.

    With almost no color, this spritzy rosado is prickly and feline on the nose, like Sauvignon Blanc or Verdejo. The palate is lightly bubbly, with bounce and tart tangerine and herbal flavors. Txomin Etxaníz has never made a commercial rosé prior to this. This makes you wonder why…
