About the wine
Treixadura is one of Spain's hidden treasures
-
We’ve made $5 million available to help struggling wineries to survive and come out the other side of this Covid crisis. The closure of bars and restaurants across the globe has been a disaster for the independent winemakers who supply them. The little guys, without connections to the big supermarkets, are the ones who are suffering the most.

And one of the worst places in the world to be a small, family winemaker was Northern Spain. For the little guys - who sell most of their stock to local bars, cafes and restaurants - the toughest lockdown in Europe has spelled disaster for their business.

Treixadura is one of Spain's hidden treasures. Normally it’s blended with other grapes to add a vibrant citrusy zing, but Sandra makes it shine on its own. A full-bodied white with luscious flavours of ripe peach and refreshing citrus.
