Type: White Wine (Volcanic / Old Vine / Minimal Intervention / Traditional Canary Islands Style)
Region: Valle de La Orotava, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain
Grapes: Mainly Listán Blanco (Palomino) with small amounts of indigenous varieties including Vijariego Blanco, Marmajuelo, Gual, Baboso Blanco, Albillo Criollo, and Verdello
Alcohol ABV: 12.5%
Aroma:
A highly distinctive volcanic white with aromas of lemon zest, grapefruit, green apple, quince, and white peach. Behind the bright citrus fruit are subtle notes of wet stone, flint, sea spray, herbs, and a gentle smoky minerality that reflects Tenerife’s volcanic soils. The nose is elegant and restrained, combining Atlantic freshness with Mediterranean character.
Palate:
Dry, vibrant, and mineral-driven with remarkable tension and texture. Flavours of citrus peel, green apple, pear, quince, and lemon pith are complemented by saline minerality, subtle nuttiness, and a long, savoury finish. The wine has excellent acidity and a slightly waxy texture, creating a balance between freshness and depth.
The grapes are sourced from old vineyards in the Valle de La Orotava, including historic parcels trained using the traditional cordón trenzado (“braided cord”) vine system. The grapes are fermented naturally with indigenous yeasts in a combination of concrete tanks and old French oak barrels, followed by ageing on fine lees in large-format oak and older 500L barrels. The wine is bottled with minimal intervention, preserving its natural expression and volcanic character.
Suertes del Marqués works with old, often ungrafted vines planted on the volcanic slopes of Tenerife. The vineyards sit between approximately 300–700 metres altitude, where Atlantic winds, volcanic soils, and traditional vine training methods create wines with exceptional freshness, salinity, and a strong sense of place. The estate focuses on sustainable farming and preserving the unique viticultural heritage of the Canary Islands.
