Discover Lanzarote’s Best Wines
Did you know that Lanzarote produces some of the best wines in Spain? For that reason, if you come on holiday to Lanzarote you cannot leave without tasting a good selection of its wines first. Of course, in this case, remember that it is better to leave your cheap rental car parked in Lanzarote, because safety comes first.

Bodega El Grifo

It is the oldest winery on the Canary Islands and one of the ten wineries with the longest history in Spain. Its Ariana Blanco de Guarda and its Malvasía wines have gained international recognition in cities such as Paris and Berlin, among others. If, in addition to tasting it, you want to know a little more about its history, you can visit its facilities in San Bartolomé. Now is the time, start and head over here with your rental car and try their specialties. You won't regret it!

Bodega La Geria

This is the most visited winery in Spain: 300,000 people go to it every year. And the truth is that it is worth it, as its 5,225 hectares and its proximity to the Timanfaya National Park make La Geria a real tourist attraction. Its Malvasia is their best known wine, and its variety got them many medals and more mentions at different festivals. Ask for a drink in any restaurant and accompany it with a fresh fish to discover all its nuances and contrasts, or go with your rental car in Lanzarote to visit the winery in Yaiza.

Bodega Rubicón

Located opposite La Geria, the Rubicón winery has its own restaurant where you can taste not only its wines, but also typical delicious recipes of the island. The different varieties of Malvasia it produces have been acclaimed in London, Lyon, Berlin, Paris and Vienna, among others. Undoubtedly, the fertility of this soil and the volcanic environment in which vine grows, contribute to create a unique product in the world which conquers the most refined palated and surprises those who taste it for the first time.


These are just some of the options that we propose to discover the best wines of Lanzarote, although on the island there are other wineries of different sizes and quality to make a stop at and learn more about the wine production in this area of Spain. In any case, remember that you can leave your rental car well parked and head to a nearby restaurant to taste the varieties of wine. And if you're on the road, don't drink and drive. Safety comes first!
