Western Wonder: Teneguia White Wine From La Palma

La Palma's excellent Teneguía white wine La Palma's excellent Teneguía white wine

This excellent La Palma dry white is superb value and rivals any Spanish white you can buy for the price in Gran Canaria's supermarkets.

Teneguía Blanco is made from a hotchpotch of local grape varieties from all over La Palma. It's the cheapie version of the winery's excellent La Gota but a great value wine in its own right. 

The 2014 vintage is pale straw yellow colour with a fruity nose and hints of green apple, fennel and hay. Rich in the mouth but dry. Has a long, floral aftertaste. 

Seriously good for the price of 5-6 euros. This rivals any Spanish white wine on the shelves at the same price in Gran Canaria. 

Alex says: Wines from the western Canary Islands of La Palma, El Hierro and La Gomera tend to be excellent value because they don't have the cachet of Lanzarote whites or the big domestic market of Tenerife and Gran Canaria. 

Teneguía Blanco sells in Alcampo and El Corte Ingles in Gran Canaria.

    Gran Canaria Tip: What Are The Best Car Hire Companies?

    This is one of the most common questions we get in our Facebook Group (with over 30,000 members) and fortunately, it is an easy one to answer. The Gran Canaria Info admin team and the fans in our Facebook group agree...

    The best car hire companies in Gran Canaria are local ones with desk at the airport and honest pricing policies that don't have any hidden insurance or fuel deposit costs. They just rent you a good car at a good price with no fuss at all. 

    We recommend Mr Car Hire Gran Canaria (Nick); an idependent car rental professional who works with all the main local rental companies in Gran Canaria. This means that he can always find you a good deal.

    Mr Car Hire also offers fully comprehensive insurance on all car rental, three-day bookings, and delively of your car right to your door anywhere in Gran Canaria. 

    We advise all Gran Canaria visitors to avoid booking the cheapest possible car on generic car rental websites or via their flight company because you often end up paying large deposits, extra fuel and insurance costs and all kinds of other costs once you arrive to pick up your car at the airport.
