Pablo Matallana Vinicola Taro Blanco 2021

Pablo Matallana is one of the most thoughtful young voices in the Canary Islands. Based on Tenerife and trained through both enology and serious field work, he has become known for recovering old vineyards and working with traditional varieties such as Listan Negro, Listan Blanco and Vijariego. His parcels often sit on volcanic soils in dramatic, wind-shaped landscapes, where farming is laborious and yields are naturally modest. In the cellar he favors native yeasts, gentle extraction and minimal additions. The wines are light on their feet but full of volcanic imprint, combining smoke, herbs, salt and bright Atlantic freshness.
