Description

Taganan is the old local name for this rugged vineyard area, located on the northeastern side of Tenerife, where vines are planted on primary volcanic rock on cliffs just above the Atlantic. This wine is a blend of the many different native white varieties, which are vinified separately, with some parcels undergoing skin contact. A truly unique and characterful wine, deliciously salty and smoky with refreshing acidity.

Envinate

Envínate, meaning "wine-yourself," is the inspired creation of four friends—Laura Ramos, Jose Martínez, Roberto Santana, and Alfonso Torrente—who met while studying oenology at the University of Miguel Hernández in Alicante. Their focus is on reviving ancient, Atlantic-influenced terruños in Ribeira Sacra, the Canary Islands, and Almansa. Their philosophy is simple yet profound: allow each parcel to speak for itself through traditional farming and winemaking practices. Envínate encompasses four distinct projects: Lousas in Ribeira Sacra, Táganan and Benje in Tenerife, and Albahra in Almansa.

Canary Islands

The Canary Islands, an archipelago off the northwest coast of Africa, are an intriguing wine region known for their unique and diverse offerings. The islands benefit from a subtropical climate with moderate temperatures year-round, influenced by the surrounding Atlantic Ocean and varied altitudes.
They are renowned for their distinctive wines made from indigenous grape varieties such as Listán Negro, Listán Blanco, and Malvasía. These wines often exhibit unique characteristics due to the volcanic soil and diverse microclimates of the islands. The reds, particularly from Listán Negro, offer bright fruit flavours and mineral complexity, while the whites, including those made from Malvasía, are celebrated for their aromatic profiles and crisp freshness.
