Bodega El Grifo Historic Tasting
Taste wine at the oldest winery in the Canary Islands, operating since 1775. The original volcanic crater vineyards are still producing. The winery museum shows how farmers adapted to grow grapes on what looks like the surface of the moon. Try the Malvasía - the same grape variety that Shakespeare drank when he wrote about "Canary wine."
