2022 Tameran Marmajuello

Tamerán was created in 2019 by Canary Islands native and footballer David Silva, who partnered with Jonathan García of Suertes del Marqués to establish this 6-hectare estate on Gran Canaria. The Marmajuelo is made from 100% native Marmajuelo grapes sourced from vineyards on volcanic soils at 700 meters elevation on the border of Santa Lucía and San Bartolomé de Tirajana. The wine fermented and matured in a 2,500-liter oak foudre with lees for 9-10 months. Marmajuelo is the first variety harvested due to its short cycle and slow fermentation, producing an expressive, mineral-driven wine that reflects a respectful agricultural approach and traditional winemaking with native yeasts.
