My first Tenerife wine. Listan negro is the dark-skinned version of Palomino of Sherry, and Tintilla is probably Grenache. I was blown away with the price-vs-quality of this wine which was balanced and aromatic and revealed interesting notes on nose and palate including candied fruit, raspberry, herbs, white pepper, and a moderate oak profile.

nose of brambly dark berry patch, part herbal & botanical w perfume of violets, spice cake & fireball cinnamon ~ sappy, candied & juicy raspberry & cherry, pastilles & rose petals w smoke, minerals & white pepper on the finish

about 90% Listan Negro and 10% Tintilla from 35 plots of vines ranging from 10 to 180 years of age at heights of 250 to 800 meters above sea level

to be clear: this is their “intro” red wine we sell for $17.95

BRAVO!

Sorry but this just hits to close to home ... On the nose is spicy but flowery with that smell so characteristic of the wet and dark cellars of my childhood. Wood, tabaco, jasmine, pepper, clove... in the palate high tannins with a well balanced acidity and a long mineral finish with a twist. Black berry, dark cherry, tea, spices, minerals, coffee, smoke, pine and retama ... What a treat ! ... Amazing wine.
