La Santa de Ursula is a new bottling from the northeast coast of Tenerife in an area called La Carujera, part of the Tacoronte-Acentejo appellation. It’s a blend of three parcels of 100+ year old vines planted on sandy clay over red basalt bedrock, situated between 350m and 650m above sea level. The blend is 48% Negramoll, 50% Listán Negro, and 2% Listán Blanco, which are vinified partially with whole clusters in cement and aged in small neutral oak barrels. Bottling is without fining or filtration, and only a small addition of sulfur.

Other Reviews....
When I tasted the 2023 La Santa de Úrsula in late June, it had finished its élevage in oak and was in stainless steel waiting to be bottled at the end of July. They keep the wines in tank for a while before being bottled, but this is very representative of the final wine, as they adjusted the sulfur and everything. It's floral and aromatic, spicy, very elegant, balanced, fresh and approachable. It's a step up from the 2022. They expect to fill some 6,000 bottles. Drink 2025-2031.
