Altos de Tr3vejos, extraordinary Volcanic Wines with varietals from centuries-old Teide vines
Soil: Volcanic rock, with two different horizons:
● The first and most superficial, characterized by a clay-loam soil of approximately 1 to 1.5 m. deep.
● And a second horizon of volcanic rock appears where the first one sits.
Elaboration: White wine made with the Albillo and Verdello varieties. Manual harvest selected from the bunches at the optimum moment of maturation. After destemming, grain by grain is selected, and a cold maceration begins to extract all its aromatic potential. It is then lightly pressed to obtain the flower must, which ferments in tanks at a low temperature. Subsequently, barrel aging is carried out to gain aromatic complexity.
Tasting note:
View: Pale yellow color with golden reflections.
Nose: Great aromatic complexity where the aromas of fruit (passion fruit, lychee, mango, peach, etc.) and white flowers (jasmine, orange blossom, etc.) combine with the subtle notes of aging.
Mouth: Intense, oily, unctuous and well balanced, well marked acidity that makes it fresh and lengthens the aftertaste in which the notes of aging are subtly expressed.

The icy cold of the night tans and contrasts with the intense sun of the day to slowly ripen its grapes and naturally enhance the aromas and fruit flavors of the Malvasia aromatic, Albillo Criollo and Muscat of Alexandria varieties. Listán Blanco and Verdello, in addition to Baboso Negro, Vijariego Negro, Syrah and Listán Prieto, which give the Altos de Trevejos winery that special flavor.
