Smelled funky, a bit like pee, even, at first, but taste was rich and full of pleasantly sour fruit and distinctly saline mineral. Light to medium bodied. Unique and enjoyable.

One of my favorite wines for the price point. Soft, bright berry-driven fruit (blueberry, cranberry, tart cherry, pomegranate), dried savory herbs, leather, black licorice, violet, black pepper, earthy spice; game, smoke, and charcuterie. Gentle acidity and rocky minerality keep it lifted and lively.

I love this wine. So much ground pepper and chimney smoke on the nose. It’s like walking around on a rainy or snowy winter day and smelling the sweet perfume of your neighbors chimney. I almost totally dislike the white Listan Blanco Benje. I find that tired and lacking acidity and just tired. I prefer this wine to the more expensive Migan. Migan had more reduction and ethyl acetate on the nose and okay okay it’s more Pinot Noiresque but I don’t need a wine from the Canary Islands to be like a Pinot Noir. #listan #listannegro #canaryislands #spain

A couple years of bottle age has done wonders for this wine. Singing right now.

Entry level Envinate from Tenerife. Old vines Listan Prieto. Light in color with a smoky, spicy nose. Crunchy red fruit, volcanic rock and minerals. Brief finish but oh so drinkable. Great qpr. ABV 12%.

Liquid slatey rock topped with cherries. Acidic. Quaffable. Lingers forever.

Unmistakably an island wine per @Jim Wagonfeld. Smoky berries, soft fruit, tobacco, slate/mineral, ash, light acid & tannin on the finish. @Alsu Shakirova says smashed berries on asphalt. Easy.

Funky nose, (Jura/Loire)... bright color... great flavor, cherry, berries also some pepper (could be mistaken for a cru Beaujolais)
