Suertes Del Marqués is producing some of Spain’s most sought-after wines on the largest of the Canary Islands, Tenerife. The winery currently makes three levels of wine. The village wines — which include this 2020 Medianías Listán Negro — come from a variety of different vineyards around the island. The Medianías has an exceedingly lively nose and palate with aromas and flavors of juicy cherry, raspberry bramble, and cranberry with an undertone of cured meat and allspice. It is medium-bodied, with firm tannins and brisk acidity driving the long finish. This type of wine makes sense to drink with a chill alongside a rich, savory meal.
