• Guillermo Iturriondobeitia (Zaratamo, 1965) lleva muchísimos años elaborando txakoli.

Lure Wines es el último proyecto junto con el productor musical vasco-californiano Rafa Sardina.

Trabajan con viñedos propios en las localidades de Orozko, donde tienen la bodega, y Arrankudiaga; ambas en el interior de Bizkaia.

Xuxurla (Susurro) se cría con sus lías alrededor de 6-8 meses en inox.

Un txakoli que me encanta por su aparente ligereza pero lleno de contenido.
Aroma más floral que la mayoría de txakolis y una boca ligera pero contundente, sincera, de paso fácil, limpio, muy agradable y muy buen final.

Elaboran unas 10000 botellas, la mayoría para exportación.

Ailu lleva crianza en inox y barrica, más complejo, con un abanico de matices de más recorrido. Más compotas, balsámicos, ligeros amielados… muy largo.

Cómo no vas a querer y apoyar este ecosistema y hábitat de personas entregadas que comparten ilusión, generosidad y conocimiento a partes iguales…

Guille, Inge, Rafa,… todo el equipo de Lvre Wines con la capitana Kata al mando.

Eskerrik asko, Equipazo !!!

This hits hard. You are one of a kind Mr B !!!


• Hi This message is from ’s (David Goggin) wife . Thank you for your love and support. Below is the obituary that we prepared.

|| Recording Industry Renaissance Man, David Goggin (aka Mr. Bonzai) Passes at 78 ||

David Goggin (often known by his pen name “Mr. Bonzai”), whose journalism, photography, visual art, and advocacy chronicled the golden age of recording studios, has died peacefully after a valiant fight with two cancers and a stroke.  He was 78. 

David is survived by his wife of 42 years, acclaimed artist Keiko Kasai, with whom he shared a long and intimate personal and artistic partnership. She was the muse for over 1,000 of his drawings and portraits.

A true Renaissance man, Goggin was an accomplished artist, writer, photographer, journalist, filmmaker, and poet. He was best known for his monthly interviews with producers, engineers, and musicians for Mix magazine and later EQ magazine from the late 1970s through the 1990s. He produced over 250 interviews for both these magazines, offering quirky, insightful, and vivid portraits of studio life, where some of the era’s most iconic albums were recorded. His work documented the voices of producers, engineers, and session musicians often overlooked in mainstream music reporting.

“I just kind of fell into it. I was always around music,” Goggin told podcaster Daniel Keller. “I wasn’t thinking about a career; I was just doing what I loved. Suddenly, I’m in the studio with these legends, documenting them making their music. This became my life—capturing these moments. I realized I had a front-row seat to history.”

• .malaga The Txakoli is arriving and I’m genuinely a bit giddy about it.

Also — can we take a moment for these labels? Absolute show-offs.

If Txakoli isn’t on your radar yet — fix that.
If it is — come anyway. You probably don’t know it like this.
