DS's. Peppery, stony, roses, high acidity and minerality. Fantastic example of aged listan negro from Tenerife.

This wine is drinking very nicely, and holding well.

This wine really jazzed up me and all the other wine nerds at a tasting of "weird stuff". Not sure I've ever had anything like it but would have it again. Worth seeking out and a great value.

Very unique and refreshing to taste a wine so different from most. Listan Negro grape. Peppery, stony, fruit coming out later. High quality. Balanced. Medium finish. Deteriorated quickly though, undrinkable after 3 days open.

Interesting wine, and without more practice with Listan Negro (this is my 2nd) I'm having a hard time judging quality here. Mouthfeel, structure, overall nose all say this is a quality, well-made bottle, but there's something astringent in the palate that I find off-putting. Not sure if its the bottle or a varietal tendency.

Thin, astringent, like too-young Rioja. I was hoping for more volcanic sense from Canary Islands wine, but there’s little redeeming here. Put in cellar for 3-5 years more and hope for improvements.

Monthly Tasting Group: Spain (Rincon 38, Mpls, MN) : Medium-dark red color. PNP, folowed a glass over an hour. Pretty solid, if fairly straightforward, red fruits, fairly herbal, some spice, medium light body. Simple, well done overall.

Canary wine kicks ass! It's a bit on the greener, more herbaceous side but the acidity balances it out. Truly enjoyable with acidic preparation red meat, very aromatic as well and the body won't tire your palate.

Very unique wine, both on the nose and palate. Made from the unusual grape, Listan Negro. Intense and dark. Earthy, blackberry, black cherry, sage, charcoal, hay and some flavors I can't identify. Great value and a great change of pace.

A really nice, earthy read that slowly opened and had multiple layers of scents and flavors. A good mid week red to enjoy with cheese and simple earthy pasta

Second Dolores Cabrera Fernandez I’ve had and significantly prefer this wine vs others. Much more complexity and depth.

Zingy acid, assertive and tasty bitterness. Nose is herbaceous with some pine forest. Lots of personality.
