I had my first tintilla experience the other day. Tintilla, you say? Why yes…tintilla.
I think I just like saying tintilla….
It is an indigenous grape to the Canary Islands and is the star of the show in this bottling from Tenerife- the 2007 tintilla from Vinatigo, a Jose Pastor Selection. It was my first time tasting wines from the Canary Islands and I am very intrigued and ready to go back for more. Here is a link to a post from Alice Feiring about her recent CI tasting experience.
Also take a look at my dear friend and London wine presenter Christina’s recent post on her visit to the Canary Islands (jealous. Why can’t I have a husband that gets to travel for a living and take me with him?)
