The impressive 2021 La Santa de Úrsula has a floral peppery and herbal nose and an elegant and fresh palate with a sensation of harmony and balance. It has very fine tannins and a long clean and ethereal sensation in the finish. 9700 bottles and 100 magnums produced. It was bottled in July 2022. There is a new red from the north of Tenerife the 2020 La Santa de Úrsula a field blend of Negramoll and Listán Negro trained in a parral bajo way (similar to a gobelet). It's produced with grapes from the village of Santa Úrsula in the zone known as Tacoronte-Acentejo but it's sold without appellation of origin. They had the chance to start working with three centenary plots from La Corujera one at 350 meters above sea level and the other two at 600 meters. The area is something like Taganana but further away from the sea and with more rain more like La Orotava. So the wines are something in between perhaps closer to the ones from Taganana a little wild herbal and floral but Tacoronte-Acentejo has red soils.
