Grape Harvest Starts

Last wekend the grape harvest began on the island. For the moment it is only certain areas being haversted as this year the ripening has not been uniform due to the weather. It is very important that the grapes are picked at exactly the right time to produce the quality wines which Lanzarote is known for. The bodega which produces the most is El Grfo which in 2017 produces 785,000 kilos of grapes and then one of the favorite wines Bermejo with 645,000 kilos.
