In Canary Islands, you'll find different kind of grape.

They use some similar varieties to the Madeira Island, Portugal lkike Bual, Malmsey (also know as Malvasia in the mainland Spain and Malvoisie in the mainland France), Negramoll, Sercial...

Canary Islands are locate Aside Marocco.

This wine is made of 100% Listán Blanco.

Clear yellow/green color.

Aromas of lime, petrol, mineral and white flower.

The palate is fresh, elegant and long.

Excellent to match oyster or a good clam chowder, any kind of fish or seafood and mild cheese.

Serve it at 8-10 degrees.

Ready to drink now.
