2022 Envinate Benje Tinto [WA94+]

Producer: Envinate  Region: Canary Islands, Spain  Varietal: Listán Prieto   Year: 2022  Wine Advocate, 94+ Points  "The red 2022 Benje is floral, expressive, clean and elegant, reflecting a very good year in the region, with notes of rose petals and talcum powder, a fine texture and very elegant tannins. This has to be the most elegant Benje to date. 28,000 bottles. It was bottled in July 2023."  Winemaker Notes:  "This savory Listan Prieto-dominant wine is loaded with textured flavors of dark fruits, red currants, cracked black pepper, and crushed flower petals. Serve slightly chilled with grilled mushrooms, eggplant dips, or Spanish-inspired tapas at home."  Alcohol: 12%  *Price and availability in store may vary. Vintage date may differ from pictured.
