The iconic Rubentis rosé is a field blend of Hondarrabi Zuri and Hondarrabi Beltza varieties, co-fermented for three weeks. When most local wineries gave up on the indigenous red Hondarrabi Beltza vines, the Ameztoi family retained their old vines, this gives their rosé exceptional vibrancy and complexity. Rubentis, the region’s first pink wine, was inspired by the historic claret-style wines that were once produced in the area long before the current global craze made rosé famous. The backbone of the blend comes from a Hondarrabi Beltza vineyard planted in 1840, preserved by the Ameztoi family for generations. Lean, bright, and briny with the subtlest hint of herbaceousness make this a knockout vintage for Rubentis. Some years the wine can taste stemmy or green, perhaps due to under-ripening of the grapes, but not this year. The 2023 is smokin’ good!

Ameztoi is one of the top producers of Getariako Txakolina. They own 20 hectares of vines in the best location. From the vineyards one can see the town of St. Sebastian and understand the influence of the Atlantic Ocean on local viticulture.
