Introduction: The 2022 Bodega Piedra Fluida Listán Blanco is a strikingly pure and mineral-driven white wine that showcases the volcanic terroir of the Canary Islands. With its bright acidity, saline edge, and textured depth, this wine is a true reflection of its rugged Atlantic environment.
Terrior: Sourced from ungrafted, centenarian vines rooted in the black volcanic soils of the Canary Islands, this wine benefits from ocean breezes and high-altitude vineyards. The volcanic ash and basalt contribute to its distinct minerality and smoky undertones, while the region’s warm days and cool nights ensure vibrant acidity.
Appearance: Pale straw yellow with greenish hues, displaying clarity and brightness.
Nose: Aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and white flowers blend with wet stone, saline notes, and a subtle smoky flint, reflecting the wine’s volcanic origin.
Palate: Crisp and linear, with flavors of citrus, pear, and underripe pineapple. The pronounced minerality and saline character are balanced by a slight textural roundness from lees aging, giving the wine depth and complexity.
Finish: Long and zesty, with lingering citrus, crushed rock minerality, and a delicate smoky-saline nuance that echoes its volcanic heritage.
Overall Impression: A beautifully fresh and terroir-driven white wine that captures the essence of the Canary Islands. Perfect with seafood, grilled octopus, or simply enjoyed as an exploration of volcanic viticulture.
