Why Cave selected it

Benchmark Envínate cuvée: organically farmed, high-altitude fruit delivering vibrant, mineral red wine that’s versatile at the table and excellent value.

About the wine

 

The must is fermented in open-top, 5,200 litre concrete fermenters with 30% whole bunches, undergoes a 14 day maceration, and then is aged for 8 months in thesame concrete tanks. Wine is neither fined nor filtered. Small doses of sulphur are used. The nose displays ripe red fruit, floral notes, and minerality. On the palate there is bright acidity, good structure, body and power. Finishes long and is highly enjoyable.

 

About Envínate

Envínate (aka wine-yourself) is the brainchild of Laura Ramos, Jose Martínez, Roberto Santana and Alfonso Torrente, four friends who met while studying oenology at the University of Miguel Hernández in Alicante. They focus on exploring the ancient, Atlantic-influenced terruños of Ribeira Sacra, The Canary Islands and Almansa. Their philosophy is simple: let each parcel fully express itself through traditional farming and wine-making methods. Right now there are four different projects under the Envínate umbrella: Lousas overseen by Alfonso Torrente in Ribeira Sacra, Táganan and Benje by Roberto Santana in Tenerife, and Albahra in Almansa by Laura Ramos and José Martínez. These are some very unique and special wines, and some are only made in tiny quantities, so grab them while you can!
