The Ignios Orígenes Vijariego Negro is a striking red wine made from a rare local variety grown on stony basalt soils. It is a wine of both structure and vibrancy, offering an exciting expression of Tenerife’s volcanic heritage.
Pairing Suggestions:
This wine is excellent with roasted lamb, grilled steak, or slow-cooked pork dishes. Vegetarians will find it pairs beautifully with lentil stews, roasted aubergines, or wild mushroom risotto. Its savoury spice and mineral drive make it highly versatile with richly flavoured dishes.
Tasting Note:
The nose is lifted with notes of wild thyme, pepper, and red berries, supported by a meaty, savoury edge. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, structured, and mineral, with fine tannins and a core of bright, spicy fruit. The finish is long, savoury, and infused with volcanic energy.
