2024 Linaje del Pago, "Verde Lima" Blanco, Tenerife
Hailing from the volcanic slopes of Tenerife, the 2024 Linaje del Pago "Verde Lima" is a vibrant expression of high-elevation viticulture. Sourced from gnarled, pre-phylloxera vines at up to 1,200 meters, this blend of 70% Listán Blanco (Palomino) and 30% Marmajuelo captures the island’s raw, unvarnished beauty. The basalt-heavy soils of Mount Teide impart a distinct smoky minerality, while stainless-steel aging ensures a transparent, "ready to rip" profile. If you love the saline snap of a Spanish Albariño or the refreshing tension of crisp Mediterranean white wines, this bottle has your name on it.
The experience begins with a nose of pure seaspray and crushed rock, layered with heady aromas of jasmine, papaya, and yellow apricot. On the palate, the 2024 vintage balances its mouth-coating texture with a zippy, invigorating acidity that makes it the quintessential summer white. Best served nicely chilled (45-50°F), it is equally at home next to a simple piece of grilled fish as it is poolside during a sunset cookout. This is a clear, floral, and mineral-driven lens into one of the world’s most unique volcanic landscapes, and you’ll want plenty on hand for the warmer months ahead.
