Suertes del Marqués, Vidonia 'VP' 2022
Place: Tenerife, Canary Islands
Grape: Listán Blanco
Vibe: Natural, textural
I've had the divine pleasure of sampling this bad boy a few times this year. By sampling I do mean imbibing. Listán Blanco off centurion vines, planted in the volcanic soils above Orotava. Goes into neutral oak for 10 months maturation on the lees. Grand Cru vibes. This is a cut above, everything dialled up yet everything perfectly poised. One of the great white wines, anywhere. ABV: 12.5%
