In the Glass — Tasting Notes

A pale, luminous pour that speaks of mountain freshness and volcanic mineral grip. Stone fruits and citrus peel sing clearly, with delicate floral whispers and a fennel-like savouriness. The palate reveals its class through a creamy texture from ten months on lees, yet remains brisk with that distinctive saline edge that volcanic soils impart. This is a wine built for the table, not the tasting room.

The Winery — Ocampo

Ocampo is the new venture from Jonatan García Lima, a winemaker who has already shaped the reputation of two of the Canary Islands' finest estates. Working with ungrafted vines planted in ancient volcanic soils along west-facing terraces, García Lima is part of a new generation reclaiming the archipelago's heritage of indigenous varieties and traditional viticulture. The 2023 vintage in Tacoronte delivered warmer conditions and early ripening, which concentrated the fruit while the Atlantic's cooling breath kept the acidity alive and texture refined. The blend—Malvasia, Marmajuelo, Albillo Criollo and Listán Blanco—each contributes its own mineral voice, unified by careful hand-harvesting, indigenous yeast fermentation in Austrian oak, and patient lees-aging.

At Your Table — Food Pairing & Serving

Drink this with salt-baked fish, shellfish, or creamy risottos where the mineral snap will cut through richness. At 13% ABV and naturally low in residual sugar, it's a natural companion for Sunday lunch or an intimate evening, equally at home with seafood or alone as an aperitif. Vegan and vegetarian-friendly. This is what happens when a serious winemaker goes back to old vines and old ways—you get wine with real presence.
