Suertes del Marqués Vidonia 2022

Tenerife, Canary Islands, SpainFrom Tenerife's volcanic soils, this organically farmed old vine listán blanco was rooted at 350-550m. Vidonia is an old colloquial term for the historic whites of the island, traditionally dominated by listán blanco and generally field blends. This mineral driven listán blanco was native fermented in neutral 500L casks and 25hL foudre before spending another 11 months rest there. Buoyant reduction leads this saline white, met on the palate by crystalline lemon, green apple, flake salts, and crushed stones. A fine lees line buffers the lifted marine acidity, and carries this through the lingering saline finish. Very impressive, and singular, as ever.Tasted: 26 February 2025Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
