Tajinaste Listán Negro La Palma Canary Islands

La Palma DO, Spain
Ancient ungrafted Listán Negro from La Palma's volcanic slopes. Ethereally light — pale ruby translucent — with cranberry, red cherry, volcanic ash, Atlantic salt spray, dried herbs, and a quivering freshness unique to the Canary Islands' pre-phylloxera vine culture. One of the Atlantic wine world's most fragile and moving wines.
