Wine Advocate 90/100 · Decanter 89/100
Tierra Fundida works with the volcanic soils and Atlantic influence of Tacoronte-Acentejo, in Spain's Canary Islands. The winery draws on indigenous varieties suited to the region's unique terroir: Listán Blanco, Verdello, and Albillo for whites; Negramoll and Listán Negro for reds. Cercado del Pino, a white blend of Listán Blanco, Verdello, and Albillo, represents the winery's approach to the local palette. The Tinto, built from Negramoll and Listán Negro, and the Blanco, a mix of Albillo and Palomino, round out the core range. Wine Advocate has rated these expressions, reflecting their technical merit within the context of Canarian winemaking.
