What types of wine are produced in the Canary Islands?

What does a wine tasting experience include?

Wine tasting experiences typically include a guided tour of the vineyard and bodega, an explanation of the winemaking process, and a tasting of 3–6 wines paired with local cheeses and tapas. Many tastings are held in atmospheric volcanic bodegas.

About this experience

Wine Tasting in Volcano is a guided tasting of Hawaiian-grown wines at the Volcano Winery, located on the Big Island's southern slope near Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. The winery uses local grapes and tropical fruits, such as guava and passionfruit, in its small-batch production. Tastings take place in a rustic tasting room with views of the surrounding ʻōhiʻa forest.

What to expect

The tasting flight includes five samples of current releases, covering dry reds, off-dry whites, and fruit-infused wines.
Each pour is accompanied by a staff explanation of the winemaking process, including how volcanic soil and elevation affect the grapes.
The session lasts approximately 30 minutes, with seating available at the bar or on the outdoor lanai.
Guests receive a souvenir tasting glass to take home after the flight.
The winery also offers a paired cheese and cracker plate for an additional fee, which can be ordered during the tasting.
This activity suits adults aged 21 and over, including those with limited wine knowledge, as the staff answer questions at any level.
