Envinate, Tenerife Benje Tinto other_regions_italy 17 ha parcel situated directlyThe red 2019 Benje was produced mostly with Listn Prieto with some Listn Blanco (4%) and Tintilla (2%) from different old vineyards in Santiago del Teide in the south of Tenerife at altitudes ranging between 900 and 1,000 meters, where sandy soils are covered by volcanic ash from the eruption of the Chinyero Vulcano in 1909. 2019 was extremely dry, and they had to reduce yields to avoid the blocking of the vines, so they only got 50% of a normal crop.
