Red Wine Malafollá 2018

Origin of malafollá

It is the story of an apprentice of the blacksmith’s trade in Sacromonte, who was in charge of blowing the embers giving the bellows an adequate rhythm. Nevertheless it was difficult for him to maintain the necessary temperature. The result was that the stones did not stay incandescent and the slab was not perfect. Thus, they said the apprentice had a bad “follá”, because he did not blow well with the bellows. The master blacksmith shouted at the apprentice in an angry way: “Child, you’re doing it wrong, what a bad ‘follá’ you have. Child, don’t come anymore, you have a very bad follá “. And this is how this Grenadian term arises
