Lanzarote

From Vinismo

Lanzarote vines are planted in small craters surrounded by stonewalls, called Zocos.

Lanzarote is an official DO appellation of Canary Islands, Spain.

Lanzarote is the name of the island where these wines are grown. It is famous for its unique alveolar planting system, where each vine is planted in its own hole in the ground to be protected from the wind.
