“This now plays in the major league.” - The Wine Advocate

This extraordinary wine lives on the edge in so many ways. On the edge of Europe, on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, on the edge of a volcano and on the edge of balance. It’s so close to being sour, that if it had one milligram more of malic acidity, it would taste like a cooking apple, but it doesn’t and that’s a masterstroke in winemaking. That is taking it right to the edge. It’s perfectly balanced, teetering almost, eyes closed, on a cliff edge, alone above a raging sea.

It’s made from 100 year-old Listan Blanco vines from the village of Palo Blanco, regarded as the best site in Tenerife for whites wine, and it transmits the character of the soil and the weather and the maritime climate as eloquently as the ink of a good travel writer. The wine is mineral, zesty, saline and chiselled, packed with citrus, yet rendered complex and fascinating by the substrate of minerals that underpin it. A lemon-flavoured hand-grenade! It’s made to be enjoyed, but it's not going to change its nature to please you. Love it for what it is, and what it is is fabulous! 11.5% alc. Vegan-friendly. Drink now-2029.

Press review:

The Wine Advocate: “The 2021 Palo Blanco has an expressive, clean and open nose reminiscent of flowers, herbs and a spicy twist. The wine is supple and fresh, with vibrant acidity and a long and salty finish.Drink now-2029.” 97+ points
