Marmajuelo, Valle de Güímar Blanco

SKU HMMA

While Listán Blanco comprises most of the winery’s holdings, they also own small parcels of the hyper-local and little-seen Marmajuelo variety, which thrives in Tenerife’s volcanic sands—particularly in the lower-altitude sectors of the Güímar valley, around 400 meters above sea level. Vinified and aged entirely in stainless steel for six months, this is leaner and brighter than “Los Pelados,” with a breezier overall personality befitting its modest 12.5% alcohol, yet it still possesses admirable grip and a firm undercurrent of smoky, salty minerality.
