Basque cider, known locally as sagardoa, is a traditional, lightly sparkling cider made from native apple varieties in the Basque Country. Dry, tart and refreshingly complex, it is often enjoyed in lively sagardotegiak (cider houses) straight from the barrel. The Gorenak label is a mark of excellence, awarded only to ciders that meet strict quality standards set by a consortium of leading Basque producers. It guarantees authenticity and highlights the best expressions of the region.
Among the most respected names in Basque cider is Zapiain, a family-run winery with deep roots in the tradition. Today, the work continues under a new generation: Ion, Mikel and Egoitz Zapiain, who have taken over from their predecessors with energy and vision. The family's passion traces back to Migueltxo Zapiain, one of the first enologists dedicated to Basque cider, whose pioneering spirit still shapes the house. Egoitz in particular carries this legacy forward, combining inherited wisdom with ongoing study, research and experimentation.
