TASTING NOTES
The Benje wines are from old vine parcels in and around Santiago del Teide, high on the northwestern volcanic slopes of the island of Tenerife. The viticulture is very old fashioned: the vines grow untrained, the soil is worked by hand, and no chemicals are used. Benje Blanco is a high-toned white wine, showing its volcanic terruño with smoky notes wrapped around the orchard fruit core, braced by Atlantic-infused high-elevation acidity. Pair it with prawns, scallops, roasted pork or goat. -Importer's Notes
