Wine, art and evenings out
4.9/5
378 reviews on GetYourGuide
Book this for the most serious wine experience on Lanzarote: a two-hour visit to El Grifo, whose old winery from 1775 is the oldest of its kind in the Canary Islands, with a tasting of six wines and local cheese led by the head sommelier. It is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 378 GetYourGuide reviewers. Adults only.
Starts inLa Geria and inland
El Grifo is in La Geria, Lanzarote’s wine country in the centre of the island, and you make your own way there. Groups are small, 10 at most, and the tour is in Spanish or English.
You start in the Wine Museum, the bodega’s original winery from 1775, which made wine until the 1990s. The tools and equipment of the 19th and 20th centuries show how wine was made on the island before modern methods.
Then comes the professional tasting: six of the bodega’s best wines, with the head sommelier talking you through their aromas, colours and flavours. You learn how the trade winds and the volcanic soil shape the Malvasía, Listán Negro and Syrah grown on the family’s plot, and taste the wines with cheeses from island producers.
The listing adds discounts on shipping to European countries if you want to send bottles home.
Ninety-seven per cent of English-speaking reviewers gave it a perfect score, praising a well-structured visit that explains the why, when and how of each step, guides who include everyone, and six wines that each felt like an experience of their own. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before, and you can reserve now and pay later. Groups are capped at ten.
Our summary of the reviews GetYourGuide shows on the product page.
There are two wine visits on this site and both are excellent value. Choose El Grifo for the depth: a historic estate, a museum and six wines with the head sommelier. The vineyard tour with wine and chocolate at Finca Testeina is shorter and half the price, with two organic wines and a walk among the vines, and it suits a lighter, more relaxed hour.
If you would rather not drive after tasting, the half-day Timanfaya and La Geria tour includes a wine stop with transport.
