This is a hugely exciting wine by any standards, although it's probably not a wine for learner drinkers or those who still have their stabilisers on, because it's from rocky terrain. Old vineyards on a volcano in the Atlantic Ocean are unlikely to produce a wine you can ignore and this mesmerisingly complex and delicious wine is undeniably informed by its rocky, salty, maritime birthplace.  It's as thrilling to our tastebuds as any of the great white Burgundies, which can express their origins with similar eloquence, and it shares some of the struck flint and insistent fruit of the very best. Even if you don't think it's one of the most exciting wines you have ever tasted, as we do, you'll be amazed by its sense of drama. Clay soils at 350-450 m. Listan Blanco vines of 100+ years old on volcanic and basaltic soils. Fermented in used 500-litre barrels, with 11 months on lees. 12.5% alc. Drink now-2036.

Press review:

JancisRobinson.com: “This is so refreshing and so vivid in its flavours and sense of place that one sip delivers you to a rocky volcanic outcrop overlooking the Atlantic, the scent of the sea, of herbal scruff, of sun-warmed stone infusing every breath. It’s full-bodied and expansive even while the acidity keeps it tight and vivacious; the fruit is juicy but savoury, complemented by a raw-almond richness. And it is even better on day two. Drink now-2036.” 18.5 points and Gold Medal in the ‘Volcanic WIne Awards 2026’
