The Story

A magnificent and savory Spanish red wine masterfully crafted by Suertes del Marqués in Tenerife. Sourced from old Listán Negro vines on volcanic soils, it features wild fermentation and oak aging, highlighting bright red fruits, smoky graphite, and cracked pepper.

Food Pairing: Pairs flawlessly with slow-roasted lamb shoulder, grilled venison loin, charcoal-broiled ribeye steak, wild boar ragout, or mature sheep milk cheeses.

 

95 Points - James Suckling

A wine of stunning originality, this is the most concentrated and refined 2016 reds from this producer, but it is still very young and the dry tannins are still quite challenging. Patience will be rewarded by a cascade of subtle sour-cherry, earth and herbal aromas. Better from 2019 and probably decades of aging potential.
