If you like sunsets and especially enjoying them in an idyllic setting such as the Protected Landscape of La Geria and the Natural Park of Los Volcanes de Lanzarote, this is your experience. We will take a nice walk at sunset through the vineyard that is located at the foot of the 'Testeina' Volcano. On this guided tour you will be able to learn about the particularities and history of vine cultivation in Lanzarote, its varieties and characteristics, and discover how the art of turning the fruit of the vine into wine was carried out in the 19th century. We will also discover the before and after of the volcanic eruptions of Timanfaya (1730-1736), the resurgence of viticulture on the island, the historical and ethnographic values linked to the important culture of water and the history hidden behind the walls of the Testeina manor house and farmhouse. The first documented references to this emblematic house appear in the 16th century by the historian and writer of the Canarian Enlightenment Viera y Clavijo. To finish the experience, we will have a commented tasting of two of the best wines from Bodegas Vega de Yuco. The wine tasting will be paired with chocolate bonbons, made by an artisan workshop on the island.
