Benje Blanco 2021 Envinate
Benje White 2021 is a white wine produced by the Envinate winery in Santiago del Teide, near Tenerife, in the Canary Islands wine region of Spain.
A native Canarian grape, Listán Blanco, grown in several vineyards over 70 years old located at high altitudes, between 900 and 1,200 meters above sea level, in shallow, mineral-rich volcanic soils, are used to produce this wine.
Envinate's production philosophy is based on organic and sustainable farming, with very low yields to obtain grapes of great concentration and quality. Grapes are hand-picked and softly pressed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled cement vats without the addition of selected yeasts.
Benje White shows a straw yellow color with greenish highlights. Aromas of white fruit and citrus fruits, such as peach and grapefruit, emerge on the nose, with mineral notes of flint. In the mouth it is fresh, savory, with good acidity that balances the fruit component. The finish is long and crisp.
It is a complex wine with great personality, perfect with fish dishes, seafood, fresh or meditation cheeses.
