MiVino magazine, one of the most renowned wine publications in Spain, has featured EL GRIFO in its feature "Vintage Bites," written by food journalist Laura López Altares . The article reviews how the grape harvest is celebrated through traditional lunches enjoyed by winegrowers across Spain, from Andalusia to Castile, La Rioja, and Galicia.
On this gastronomic tour, EL GRIFO takes center stage in Lanzarote , where the winery recreated the historic grape harvest lunch of local farmers in a shack in La Geria. Sardines with onion, tuna with peppers, mackerel with tomato, pork leg with cheese, and the classic Chacón chorizo with cheese were the stars of an experience that connects rural memory with the island's winemaking identity. Other emblematic flavors of Lanzarote tradition are also evoked, such as gofio, octopus, wrinkled potatoes, and Canarian stew.
In this way, EL GRIFO not only represents the history of Canary Islands wine, but also the cultural and gastronomic memory of those who have made the grape harvest possible generation after generation.
