Bodega Los Lirios — Attraction in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

The trip out here was perfect, and I would come back, but without a car or tour bus, it might be tough to get to. I am not sure if you can take the bus up here as this vineyard, Bodega Los Lirios is located at the Bandama Volcano just south of Las Palmas and coming from Maspalomas it was a trip worth it.

This is a family-owned vineyard and it has been there for generations that does tapas and they produce white wine and red wine. Lucky us as on our tour we were told that the vineyard only produces 300 bottles of white wine a year. And we were lucky enough to have one. I did end up loving the variety of red wines they had for quite cheap too for a glass (worth the price for a bottle as well). We had probably every dish they offer there as it was part of a tour deal we had. A few of their dishes were tasty, the ones that I did not like was cold fish, wish in general I am not a fan of. I did try it, was worth the experience and am happy to try. But would probably stick to their stews, potatoes mojo sauce.

Not only lots of food and tasty local wine but also, we were so lucky to have these great artists playing which created a fantastic atmosphere. They made the afternoon great as they sang great, took a few song requests and just in general were so positive and fun. It did help that the lead singer was half Welsh, so she was able to sing in both Spanish and English which was nice. However, the vineyard venue has a different artist there each week, I think.

Moving on to the venue is an open space venue that serves great foods and lots of tasty red wines. If you drink the wine there you must have the “abecado” or Llantén Tinto Crianza 2018 and have to order a few of their delicious tapas. Most of their meals are meat-based so it might not be the best place to eat for vegans. Even without going on a tour, you can go and look at the vineyard but of course, don’t go picking up grapes if they are in season. The staff here were kind and friendly.

There is also a parking space there if you want to drive up. Also, other local businesses are outside so you can buy more than just wine there.

Check out their website for more things you can do at their venue such as a photoshoot, picnic, meal and wine...

El sitio es precioso, es una pena que la chica que lo maneja sea tan poco agradable y profesional. Fue un grupo de franceses y uno de ellos le pidió por favor para hacer de traductor para sus amigos y ella accedió pero le hacía sentir tan incómodo no respetando los tiempos, no pausaba, ponía caras de burla cuando él traducía que al final el chico dejó de hacerlo por incomodidad y terminaron usando el traductor por voz del móvil todos por individual. A parte de esto, usa un lenguaje para la visita guiada muy poco acorde a la situación. En el servicio no mira a las mesas para no dar lugar a que le pidas algo etc. sitio encantador que lo arruina un muy mal servicio. No lo recomendaría ni repetiré. La música en directo canta una hora y descansa tres. Punto número 1: no he dicho que quisiera una masterclass ni mucho menos, solo que el lenguaje usado por ti al mostrar los viñedos estuviera acorde con la situación. Punto número 2: el hombre francés dejó de traducir a medio camino, no te has preguntado el motivo? Ni siquiera le dijiste que prosiguiera, te estorbaba porque así lo hiciste notar con tus regañizas etc. Punto número 3: en mi mesa por lo menos en ningún momento nos preguntaste que tal todo. Punto número 4: fuiste antip4tic4 con nosotros. Punto número 5: tuve que entrar de cul0 porque el coche me rozó por debajo en la entrada. Punto número 6: tu comentario de; ”espero que disfrutes a los sitios que vayas” gracias ,pero no necesitas preocuparte por mi disfrute a los establecimientos que voy,si ni siquiera te preocupaste de lo sucediera en el tuyo. Las quejas son para mejorar no para que tú como encargada nos ataques con cada reseña. Un poco de autocrítica viene bien,Carlota...

At my grandmothers 80th birthday we went to Bodega Los Lirios and did the tour and tasting with the wonderful Carlotta. Carlotta was a nice guide and we got many information about the winemaking at the canary’s and what made it so special. After the short tour through the vineyard we got to taste the red wine and a plate of cheese, absolute fantastic mojo (grandmas recipe) and olives. We definitely can recommend a visit...
