About this experience

Wine Tasting in Haría is a guided tasting of Lanzarote wines in the island's northern valley town. The activity takes place in a local bodega or wine bar, where volcanic soils and traditional dry-farmed vines shape the region's distinctive Malvasía varieties. It offers a direct introduction to the island's wine culture through a seated session of several pours.

What to expect

A 90-minute seated tasting of five Lanzarote wines, including a dry Malvasía, a sweet Malvasía, and a volcanic-grown red.
Each pour is paired with a small plate of local cheese, gofio crackers, or mojo sauce to match the wine's profile.
The session includes a brief explanation of the region's unique cultivation method, where vines are planted in hollows (hoyos) to protect them from wind and retain moisture.
You will taste wines from at least two different bodegas, allowing a comparison of volcanic terroir across the island's northern production zones.
The activity suits both wine novices and enthusiasts, with the guide adjusting technical detail to the group's level.
The venue is a short walk from Haría's main square, with the tasting held indoors in a stone-walled cellar or rustic tasting room.
