- WINEMAKER: Agustín García Farrais
- FARMING: Sustainable practices with minimal intervention
- VARIETIES: 90% Listán Blanco, 10% Albillo Criollo
- TERROIR: Vineyards situated at elevations between 250 and 500 meters, featuring volcanic soils that impart distinct minerality to the wine.
- VINIFICATION: Hand-harvested grapes are transported in small 15kg boxes to prevent damage. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks to preserve the varietal's fresh and fruity character.
- AGING: Approximately 30% of the blend undergoes 3–4 months of aging in older oak casks, adding complexity and depth.
- TASTING NOTES: The wine presents a vibrant nose of lime, tart pear, green olive, lemongrass, salty minerality, raw almond, and a top note of dried flowers. On the palate, it is bright, full-bodied, focused, and complex, with lovely depth at the core, fine mineral drive and grip, zesty acids, and a long, well-balanced, and classy finish.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: Ideal with fresh seafood, grilled fish, and light salads.
- SCORES: John Gilman: 93 points
This wine exemplifies the unique qualities of Listán Blanco, offering a fresh and mineral-driven profile that reflects the volcanic terroir of Tenerife.
