Story: Envínate (“wine yourself”) was founded in ‘05 by four friends who met while studying enology. Together, they’ve become one of the most exciting forces in Spanish wine, reviving forgotten vineyards in the Canary Islands and elsewhere. Their philosophy is letting each site speak clearly: old vines, extreme terroirs, and minimal intervention.
