ALTOS DE TREVEJOS: · Volcanic Wines · Centenary Vines · Singular Varietals · 1300 m above sea level ·
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 Listan Blanco and Moscatel varieties. The grape clusters are pressed to obtain the must, which ferments in stainless steel tanks at low temperature until reaching 25g/l of residual sugar to stop fermentation due to lower temperature.
Tasting note:
View: Pale steely yellow color.
Nose: Good aromatic intensity where primary terpenic aromas characteristic of the variety stand out.
Mouth: The fruity character predominates accompanied by the freshness provided by the natural carbon, thus a sweet-acid balance that makes it uninhibited.
ALTOS DE TREVEJOS:
Extraordinary Volcanic wines with autochthonous varietals from centuries-old strains of the Canary Islands.
Altos de Tr3vejos, one of the highest vineyards in Spain and with the most sunshine in the world, at the foot of Mount Teide, where 23 hectares of centuries-old and young vines extend along the southern slopes of the volcano in the Llanos de Trevejos, at 1,300 meters above sea level.
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.
For decades, the wine was made in the Canarian mansion from 1790 classified as an Asset of Cultural Interest that the Alfonso family owns in the municipality of San Miguel Abona, and whose main patio presides over a huge winery from the early 19th century.
