Envinate

'Seoane' Tinto 2023

Envinate is a passion project founded by four friends who met while studying oenology in Alicante, Spain. Their shared philosophies on winemaking led them to collectively purchase a number of vineyards throughout Spain including in Ribera Sacra, Extremadura, and Tenerife in the Canary Islands. Their objective with this project is to showcase the personality of the vintage and the vineyard, most of which are old and abandoned. Concrete or old oak barrels are used during fermentation and a small amount of sulfur is added prior to bottling to protect the purity of the fruit.

It is their Tenerife wines that typically have sommeliers and consumers frothing for the next release. The ‘Benje’ vineyard sits at over a thousand meters above sea level, placing it above the cloud cover. As a result, the wines tend to be more rounded than their counterparts elsewhere on the island. The red wine, although fresh in structure, offers a baked earth and dried floral note to compliment the juicy red fruits.
