It might be hard to imagine, but there are wine-growing areas even on Lanzarote.

Its 5200 hectares next to the Timanfaya National Park make it the biggest wine-growing area on the Canary Islands. The eruptions of a volcano between 1730 and 1736 created massive lapilli layers in that area. The farmers dug funnel-like holes into the ground to regain access to fertile soil. They planted their seedlings at the bottom of these holes. The characteristic properties of volcanic rocks help to lead the sparse rainwater quickly down to the soil and also prevent evaporation thanks to their minimal thermal&nbsp;conductivity. The funnel shape protects the plants from the strong winds that dominate the island. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-id=\"12985\" src=\"https:\/\/fromplacetoplace.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/Weinanbau-in-Lavagestein.jpg\" alt=\"Wine-growing on Lanzarote \u2013 La Geria\" class=\"wp-image-12985\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromplacetoplace.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/Weinanbau-in-Lavagestein.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fromplacetoplace.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/Weinanbau-in-Lavagestein-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fromplacetoplace.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/Weinanbau-in-Lavagestein-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-id=\"12987\" src=\"https:\/\/fromplacetoplace.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/Weinanbaugebiet.jpg\" alt=\"Wine-growing on Lanzarote \u2013 La Geria\" class=\"wp-image-12987\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromplacetoplace.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/Weinanbaugebiet.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fromplacetoplace.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/Weinanbaugebiet-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fromplacetoplace.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/Weinanbaugebiet-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The area mainly produces Muscatel and Malvasia wine.
