Although often associated with the term \"Cava\" because of its production method, it's technically an Atlantic-influenced sparkling wine made from native Txakoli grapes.\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003eThe result is Izar-Leku, a sparkling wine charged with natural energy that, after long bottle ageing, gives great aromatic complexity and an attractive, distinctive saline minerality. Luis Guitierrez describes it like this: “… It's very tasty, with depth and complexity, surprising for such a young wine, powerful and long. What sets it apart from most sparkling wines is the salinity.
