Volcanic
Soils
The Canary Islands were created millions of years ago by volcanic eruptions, and now ascend directly from the sea to heights of more than 1200m above sea level.
Cooled by the breezes from South-Westerly trade winds and dappled in brilliant sunshine, the natural climate here is perfect for high quality viticulture.
«The Real Treasure Lies In The Ground»
Due to the porous nature of the soils here, phylloxera has never managed to survive on the islands and many of our old vines have their original rootstock; something almost unique in the modern world of wine.
Drinking deep from these volcanic soils imparts something truly special to our wines. An undisputable sense of place, etched into our DNA.
