Bodega Gorka Izagirre
Gorka Izagirre is a family-owned winery located in the Basque Country, near Bilbao, Spain. Founded in 2005 by Gorka Izagirre and his nephew, renowned chef Eneko Atxa, the winery aims to revitalize the region's viticulture by focusing on native grape varieties. They cultivate 40 hectares of vineyards, divided into small plots across seven towns in Biscay. The primary grape varieties grown are Hondarrabi Zuri and Hondarrabi Zerratia, indigenous to the Basque region. These grapes produce fresh, aromatic white wines with balanced acidity, reflecting the unique Atlantic climate and terroir. The winery is part of a larger family enterprise that includes a three-Michelin-starred restaurant and an informal bistro, both showcasing the synergy between local cuisine and wine.
