Borja Perez, Ycoden Daute Isora, Artífice Tinto, 2017
(Listán Negro, Baboso and Vijariego Negro)
Believe me, you've never tasted anything this vibrantly tasty since the last time you drank your first ever really good Beaujolais Cru. If anything, the acidity is even finer and more joyous. It sports gorgeous red fruit that is accompanied by aromas and an aftertaste of fresh meat (If you think I mean brett, then you should apologize. I believe the meaty character comes from the grapes. If I'm wrong, though, then the strain of brettanomyces in the Canary Islands is a particularity hygienic yeast because there's nothing malodorous here at all). Best of all is an intoxicating floral note which will make you think of Chambolle and a bong.
