Suertes del Marqués is a family winery founded in 2006 on the island of Tenerife (Canary Islands). They have 11 hectares under vine at between 300 and 750 meters above sea level with a wide variety of orientations and soil compositions. The winery is led by Jonatan García Lima.
All vineyards are located in the north of the island within the D.O. Valle de la Orotava. The estate vineyards mainly consist of own-rooted centenary plantings of Listán Blanco and Listán Negro. In addition to Listán Blanco and Negro, a number of other local varieties are grown, including Vijariego Negro, Castellana Negra, Baboso Negro, Malvasía Rosada and Torrontés Volcánico. The volcanic soils here are reddish in color and loose, with a slightly acidic pH.
Work in the vineyard and cellar are carried out with minimal intervention. The fermentations proceed with indigenous yeasts and sulfur levels are kept to a minimum. The wines have freshness, balance, purity of fruit, minerality, and an authentic terroir character. To us these are truly special wines and they leave a lasting impression on everyone who tries them.
