Back to the future: red grape varieties with ancient resilience

A few weeks back, I spotlighted some unsung grape varieties that deserve greater attention, focusing on white wines for autumn drinking. My top pick was the intriguing Supernova Blanc ‘Moll’ from Ca’n Verdura, a tiny garage-based winery where sixth-generation Mallorcan winemaker Tomeu Llabrés works with native island varieties. Today’s follow-up swings that spotlight onto some lesser-spotted red grape varieties. These include the late-ripening Mantenegro grape which thrives in the poor rocky soils of western Mallorca, and stars in Ca’n Verdura’s red Supernova Negre.
