I found this lacking acidity. Slightly cloudy. While interesting, I wouldn’t drink more than a glass or two. #canarias #spain

Place: Tenerife (Canary Island), Spain from Yconde-Daute-Isora appellation.
🇪🇸
Vigneron: Envinate (Cuvee Viticole)
-
Grape: Listán Blanco; Vintage: 2017
-
Color: Deep gold to amber around the rim. Why is the color gold for a young wine? *** I don’t know, maybe skin contact, or oxidative wine making style? @brianmcclinticms @envinatewine
-
Nose: Not floral, not citrus, spices (cinnamon, fennel seeds)
🥂
Taste: Good structure, soft acidity throughout, sweet spice taste, interesting that it’s packing quite a bit of tannins for a white wine from mid-palate through long finish.

White peach, lemon pith, Sea Salt, Cerignola Olive, smoke. As savory and mineral as this may be, it has a deliciousness that makes it enjoyable to sip. There is a phenolic backbone, and although partially skin macerated this doesn’t come across as an orange wine. Rather, it is a powerful white that has incredible pairing options. Could really stand up to strong flavors at the table. 👏🏽👏🏽

Another stunning ridiculously inexpensive canary islands white... Totally kaleidoscopic oxidative, leesy, funky, herbal, mineral, salty juice. This is quickly becoming my favorite region.

Lovely with gambas and aioli, a bright and shinning wine, loads of vulcano notes.

Pale gold. Loamy earth & petrol aromas. Medium full body on the palate, with citrus / lemon zest. Clean mineral saline finish. Excellent.
