Winelanz is a wine shop in Yaiza for travelers who want to read the Canary Islands through a bottle. It doesn't make wine itself; it gathers a tightly edited selection from small island producers, with a strong Lanzarote core: whites from Malvasía Volcánica, Listán Blanco and Diego, rosés and reds from Listán Negro, and an orange wine from old Moscatel with skin contact. There are also bottles from other islands, including La Palma, plus old-vine wines and examples aged in concrete or chestnut. The shelves go beyond wine: Janubio salt, olive oil, artisan tuna conservas, honey, liqueurs, vinegars and craft goods. You can drop in to buy, ask about the difference between varieties and styles, or join a tasting; they run tastings at the shop and private sessions. They also put together gift boxes and custom baskets, handy for taking a mixed sample of the islands home. It is a useful stop for wine travelers looking for bottles that rarely appear in supermarkets and for context from people who know the growers.
