Baboso tinto

This is a new wine for the estate, with 2017 being its first vintage. The Laderas de Teno plot is located in the El Palmar valley, in north-western Tenerife. Located at 700 m, with direct exposure to the very cool winds coming from the North Atlantic. The Teno massif is one of the first geological formations from which the island of Tenerife later emerged. The soil of this part of the island has a perfect combination of clay with volcanic rocks that allow perfect drainage. The history of the island along with the most beautiful varieties found here!

With some tongue in cheek humour, the Bimbache team has called this Blanc de Noirs Miguelito Jackson. It is the rarest of their crus.

Viñátigo makes mono-varietal wines with local grapes that are almost extinct. This Ancestral Tinto is made with the grapes of un-grafted vines and vivified "the good old way". For the real wine fans.

Jesús Méndez wants to give autochthonous Canarian cépages that are almost extinct a face back with his Viñátigo project. All his wines are vinified in very limited volumes. Assemblage of ungrafted red varieties native to the Canary Islands, the proportions of which vary each year depending on the growing cycle. The varieties used to make this blend are usually Negramoll, Tintilla, Vijariego Negro and Baboso Negro. Young and old volcanic soils, with good drainage and very rich in minerals. Some areas are the result of recent volcanic eruptions and are rather sandy. Other areas, like the plots in the El Palmar valley, are from the Teno massif, one of the oldest parts of the island and with more clay. Vines grow from sea level to 1,000 metres altitude. +-3500 bottles production.
