The Producer

About Monje

"For centuries, the Monje family has been deeply rooted in winemaking, tracing back to 1750. Across generations, they've cherished and shared their profound connection to the land, passing down their passion and expertise from father to son. Continuing this rich legacy, Felipe Monje now leads the family tradition. He nurtures some of Tenerife's oldest vines, some surpassing 300 years in age. Within his cellar, adorned with 200-year-old barrels, lies a testament to the historical trade routes that first propelled the Canary Islands into global viticultural prominence."

About the Region

Canary Islands, Spain

In the remote and rugged landscapes of the Canary Islands, natural winemaking is both an art and a way of life. These volcanic islands off the coast of northwestern Africa boast a viticultural heritage as ancient as it is unique. Here, amid the volcanic soils and Atlantic breezes, winemakers practice organic and biodynamic farming methods with a deep respect for the land. Indigenous grape varieties such as Listán Negro, Listán Blanco, and Malvasía thrive in this harsh yet fertile terrain, producing grapes of exceptional quality and character. In the cellar, minimal intervention is the guiding principle, as winemakers allow spontaneous fermentations and aging in neutral vessels to reveal the true essence of the grapes and their terroir. The resulting natural wines from the Canary Islands are a testament to the islanders' ingenuity and resilience, offering a taste of the volcanic soils and oceanic influences that shape these captivating wines.
