Description
Lanzarote has an almost unreal landscape. Black earth, vines protected by stone walls, Atlantic winds that challenge the vines to survive. Puro Rofe Uga is the pure expression of this environment. A wine that not only tells a story, but lets you feel it in every sip.
Behind this marvel is Puro Rofe, a winery that is committed to recovering the essence of Lanzarote's wines. The soul of Puro Rofe Uga is the Listán Negro, a grape that has learnt to coexist with the volcanic ash and saltpetre of the Atlantic. It grows at Finca Mota, where Pedro Umpiérrez and Ascensión Robayna have turned the work in the vineyard into an art.
At first glance, Lanzarote 's vineyards defy logic. The vines are buried in holes dug into the volcanic ash, a method that not only protects them from the wind, but also retains the scarce humidity. The soil, marked by rofe (a kind of volcanic sand), gives the wine its special identity.
Winemaking
In the winery, the production of Puro Rofe Uga is a combination of respect and minimalism. Fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts and every detail is designed so that the wine speaks for itself. There is no artifice here, just an honest interpretation of the land and the grape.
Taste
The first time you taste Puro Rofe Uga, it is as if Lanzarote unfolds on your palate. Red fruits, a touch of salinity that reminds you of the proximity of the sea, and a smoky touch that evokes the volcanic lands. The texture is light and fresh, but with an acidity that makes it vibrant.
Puro Rofe Uga is not a wine for those who are looking for something conventional. It is for those who enjoy the authentic, for those who enjoy what tells a story. If you've ever walked on hot volcanic soil in the sun, you might understand what it's like to drink this wine: a reminder that nature always has the last word.
