About
Four generations of the Lazkano family have produced and distributed txakoli near Getaria on the coast of the Cantabrian Sea. The Gaintza cellar was set up in 1923. Today, the vineyards and cellar are still looked after by a small family team.
The family also run a small B&B situated amongst the grapevines of Getaria.
