Suertes del Marqués
El Lance 2016
Valle de la Orotava DO
Espagne - Iles Canarie (Tenerife)
This wine comes from vines (from 10 to 180 years old) cultivated in braided cordons of several meters, on the volcanic slopes of the Orotava Valley (North of the island of Tenerife, 250 to 800 m in altitude). The viticulture is done with respect for the traditions and the terroir in order to deliver the original character of the local grape varieties.
El Lance comes from different parcels of five vineyards: Habanera, Florida, Pencones, Cruz Santa and Diego.
Fermented with 20% to 100% whole clusters, depending on the variety, with indigenous yeasts and without temperature control. It was aged in 500-litre used oak barrels for nine months.
Grape varieties:
45% black listan, 25% black vijariego, 30% of the other three varieties: black baboso, black castellana, malvasía rosada
Tasting notes:
Intense red colour, nose with aromas of black cherry, plum, volcanic earth, bramble, vanilla bean and candied violet. Bright black cherry, wild strawberry, pomegranate, roasted herbs and acidity are framed by firm tannins. Smoky earth and blackberry compote infuse the sumptuous finish. Elegant, velvety and dynamic. It's very volcanic, stony and savoury, with very fine tannins and precise flavours.
Wine style:
An elegant and complex red wine.

Francisco Javier García Núñez and his sons Jonatan and Francisco, who come from a family with a long tradition of winemaking, created Suertes de Marqués in 2006, while maintaining the agricultural tradition of the region. With this in mind, they began to make wines that focus on quality and are produced exclusively from indigenous Canary Islands grape varieties. In 2008, the oenologist Roberto Santana, who previously worked for the Casa Castillo winery in Jumilla, joined the project.
Located in the medianías (an area between 350 and 700 metres above sea level) of La Orotava (Las Suertes), the winery has a vineyard of 9 hectares. The majority of the vineyard is made up of century-old black and white Listán vines cultivated according to the particular system of multiple cordons; the rest of the vineyard is made up of young and old vines of autochthonous varieties (pedro ximenez, tintilla de rota, baboso negro) cultivated in espalier and cordon trenzado
The property has 21 plots identified according to soil composition, orientation, altitude and temperature. Each plot is analysed, controlled, worked and vinified separately. This process allows each wine to reflect the personality of the soil. The estate interferes as little as possible in the winemaking process and uses open, unlined concrete vats and French oak tuns for fermentation and maturation.
