Why You'll Love It
Bracing and textured, this is a white with plenty to hold your attention. Citrus, delicate flowers and a smoky, savoury edge lead into a firm, dry finish, with enough breadth to work at the table. Try it with grilled fish, roast chicken or mushrooms, and give it a little time in the glass to open up.
About The Producer
Suertes del Marqués is a family winery in Tenerife's Valle de la Orotava. The family began growing grapes in 1986 and made its first wines under its own name in 2006. Led by Jonatan García, the estate champions the valley's local varieties and traditional vine-training methods, including the striking cordón trenzado, in which long vine arms are braided together.

Work in the vineyards is carried out by hand, with organic practices rather than certification. Native yeasts, restrained sulphur use and minimal handling guide the cellar work. The aim is to preserve the character of the valley's individual sites and the remarkable heritage of its old vines.
Winemaking Information
The 2024 is 100% Listán Blanco from sites around Los Realejos in the western Valle de la Orotava. Vines aged 60 to 150 years are trained in the traditional cordón trenzado system. Harvest ran from mid-August to mid-September. Fermentation took place with native yeasts in 2,000 to 4,500-litre foudres and 500-litre barrels, with partial malolactic fermentation. The wine matured for ten months in these vessels. Farming follows organic practices; the wine is not certified organic.
