Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
There are two new wines in 2022 produced in collaboration with winemaker Eloi Cedo, better known for his work in Mallorca. The 2022 Precinto Mecánico was produced with Malvasía Volcanica from grower Ascensión Robayna in the Tilama zone. It fermented with wild yeasts, unfiltered and unfined, and bottled without any added sulfur. It's very smoky and flinty and with a reductive personality, with notes of toasted sesame seeds. It has a moderate 11% alcohol, which seems to compensate the warmer character of the year. It's precise, clean and focused. Only 564 bottles produced.

Description
There are wines that tell stories, and then there are those that transport you. Puro Rofe Precinto Mecánico is one of those wines that, with just one sip, takes you straight to the lunar landscapes of Lanzarote. Imagine vineyards struggling against the Atlantic wind, sunken in holes protected by a black blanket of volcanic ash. There, in this hostile and fascinating terrain, the Malvasía Volcánica grapes that give life to this wine are born.
This edition is the result of the collaboration between Rayco Fernández and the oenologist Eloi Cedó, known for his work in Mallorca. But here, in Lanzarote, he has captured the pure essence of the island. The grapes come from Ascensión Robayna's vineyards in the Tilama area, one of the most unique on the island because of its volcanic soils, rich in minerals and with a great capacity to retain moisture. In this region, the vines grow in holes dug in the lapilli, a volcanic ash that protects the vines from the wind and regulates the temperature of the soil.
Winemaking
The vinification of Puro Rofe Precinto Mecánico follows an artisanal and natural approach. Fermentation is spontaneous, using indigenous yeasts that enhance the terroir. It is not filtered or clarified, and no sulphites are added, allowing the wine to express its purity and volcanic character without interference. It is made in small batches to guarantee maximum quality and authenticity.
Taste
Puro Rofe Precinto Mecánico is anything but predictable. On the nose, a smoky, flinty first impression, as if someone had lit a fire in the distance. Then notes of toasted sesame, a saline touch and that distinct minerality that makes you salivate. With only 11% alcohol, its freshness is electrifying, but there is depth, there is structure. It is a wine that leaves you thinking, that begs to be enjoyed without haste.
Puro Rofe Precinto Mecánico is not just any white wine. It is a small work of art that defies the rules and reminds us why we love wine: for its ability to surprise, excite and take us on a journey without moving from the place.
