Suertes Del Marqués 7 Fuentes Tinto 2019 Tenerife

Listán Negro 90% and Tintilla 10%

The vineyards are situated at the northern side of the island in the Orotava valley, at an altitude of 250-750 metres. The soil is volcanic with different compositions depending on each particular plot. The climate is humid subtropical.

Viticulture is organic and the vines are between 8 and 100 years old depending on the plot. The older ones are trained in the traditional cordon system, whilst the youngest are trained in espalier.

The fermentation is short, with a gentle skin contact period. The resulting wine
is then matured for 8 months in concrete tanks (60%) and French oak barrels
(40%).

Expressive nose showing aromas of blackberry, black currant, lavender, black pepper, ginger and smoke. It is fruity and nicely-balanced in the mouth with ripe and round tannins and a lingering finish.
