Envinate Benje Bianco is a high-toned white wine, showing its volcanic terroir with smoky notes wrapped around the orchard fruit core. Envinate Benje Bianco is sourced from several old-vine, untrained pie franco parcels of Listan Blanco (Palomino). Each parcel is hand-harvested and vinified separately in a mix of concrete tanks and open tubs. 85% of the fruit is pressed directly off the skins, the other 15% is skin macerated for 6 days below 23C. The wine is then fermented and raised 70% in concrete under flor and 30% in 228L & 600L old French barrels for 8 months on fine lees without battonage.  Unfiltered and unfined, with no additions. 
About the Producer

Envínate (translates as "wine yourself") is the brainchild of 4 friends, winemakers Roberto Santana, Alfonso Torrente, Laura Ramos, and José Martínez. This gang of 4 formed back in 2005 while studying enology at the University of Miguel Hernandez in Alicante. Upon graduation, they formed a winemaking consultancy, which evolved into Envínate, a project that focuses on exploring distinctive parcels mainly in the Atlantic-inflected regions of Ribeira Sacra and the Canary Islands.

Their collective aim is to make profoundly pure and authentic wines that express the terruño of each parcel in a clear and concise manner. To this end, no chemicals are used in any of the Envínate vineyards, all parcels are picked by hand, the grapes are foot-trodden, and the wines are fermented exclusively with wild yeasts, with a varying proportion of whole grape clusters included. For aging, the wines are raised in old barrels and concrete, and sulfur is only added at bottling, if needed.

The results are some of the most exciting and honest wines being produced in Spain today.
