Een joint venture gestart door vier wijn-nerds die elkaar zijn tegengekomen op de Universiteit. Een sprookjesverhaal toch? Na een aantal oogsten is hun reputatie flink gestegen en maken ze super wijnen op 3 verschillende locaties; langs de westkust van Tenerife, in Ribeira Sacra en in Almansa. Wijnen met laserprecisie, super energie en met een licht natuurlijk randje! Een prachtige aanvulling op ons portfolio!

Review

The 2024 Táganan Tinto comes from a more challenging vintage in the zone of Taganana, very warm and dry, because 2023 was exceptionally good there. They did a shorter maceration, and the élevage was with the fine lees in 228-liter French oak barrels for nine months. They have been working the vineyards on their own, and this shows a step up in precision. They have also worked on minimizing the reductive character of the wines. This is clean and floral, and the palate is medium-bodied with some grainy tannins, a lighter year than 2023. 5,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2025. 95/100 Luis Gutiérrez

I tasted the bottled 2024s (and the bottled 2023 Migan) from Tenerife with Roberto Santana from Envínate in the middle of their 2025 harvest. 2024 was dry, similar to 2023, with uneven sprouting because of a warm winter, and they had to do a green harvest to correct that. There weren't any heat waves during the summer or harvest, and the harvest was early but not as early as 2023. It was a small crop for reds but very good—quality and quantity—for whites, all of them put through 100% malolactic. 2024 is the best year for La Santa. In Taganana, the style of the reds resembles 2021 or 2022, and the whites might resemble the style of 2023 but with more freshness.

In Tenerife, they work 18 hectares of the 22.5 hectares they control, and they own around 7.5 hectares, with three to five of them in Taganana. In 2024, they produced close to 80,000 bottles, a little less than in 2023.
