The Tamerán vineyards are on the south Gran Canaria, protected from the Atlantic humidity by the Pico de las Nieves, which combined with the sunny south facing slopes, makes for intensely aromatic wines. The Vijariego Blanco is tropical and bursting with lychee, red-apple and grapefruit flavours, with enough texture to work beautifully with East Asian flavours.
