Description

Envínate Benje Blanco 2018

Envínate Benje Blanco is a fascinating volcanic white. Reveals complex and intense aromas of smoky volcanic notes wrapping around a waxy quince, preserved lemon and olive base. The aromas follow through to a brine and salty mineral palate that reveals a zippy acidity.

100% Listán Blanco. The fruit comes from vineyards in Santiago del Teide, high on the northwestern volcanic slopes of Tenerife. These free-standing vines are planted at an altitude around 1,000 metres. The climate is Atlantic with an average rainfall of 550 mm. This enables grapes to ripen to moderate alcohol levels while retaining freshness and good acidity. Viticulture is organic – the soil is worked by hand without using any kind of chemicals.

Harvesting by hand. Separate vinification of each parcel in a mix of concrete tanks and open tub. 75% of the fruit is pressed directly off the skins, 25% undergoes skin contact for between 14–40 days. The wine ages on fine lees for 8 months in 60% concrete and 40% old French barriques. No battonage or sulphur is used. Clarification using a little Bentonite, no filtering before bottling.
