What it tastes like
Suertes del Marqués Las Suertes 2020 is a complex and vibrant red with aromas of ripe blackberries, raspberries, and a hint of dark chocolate, complemented by earthy undertones of herbs, leather, and a touch of spice. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied with well-defined tannins, offering a balance of dark fruit flavors, minerality, and a touch of smokiness. The wine is beautifully structured, with a refreshing acidity and a long, precise finish that highlights its elegant and nuanced character.

Ideal with grilled meats, such as lamb, pork, or beef, as well as dishes like roasted vegetables, Spanish chorizo, or tapas. It also pairs well with earthy flavors like mushrooms, truffle dishes, or aged cheeses such as Manchego or Pecorino. The wine's structure and acidity make it a versatile pairing for both rich and lighter dishes.
The grapes
Tintilla
Best known in Cádiz, Andalusia
A red grape from Andalusia, rescued from near extinction by growers around Cádiz. Deep colour, dark fruit and a fresh, slightly spicy finish. Used for still reds and blends, and a nice reminder that this sherry country also does red wine.
Where it's from
Canary Islands
Spain
Volcanic islands off north-west Africa, under the Spanish flag. Black ash soils, Atlantic winds and old ungrafted vines make wines unlike anywhere else. Listán Negro gives smoky, peppery reds; Malvasía and Listán Blanco make salty, mineral whites. On Lanzarote, vines grow in hollows dug into the ash. Thrilling stuff.
