Tastings with character: the art of wine in Málaga
The province of Málaga is home to one of the most vibrant wine scenes in Spain, with two Denominations of Origin (Málaga and Sierras de Málaga) and wineries committed to excellence and sustainability.
Ronda: wines with history and scenery
Ronda has become a benchmark for wine tourism. Bodega Doña Felisa, located between two natural parks, offers personalized visits and complete experiences: from vineyard care to the final tasting with gourmet tapas. Here, they produce red, white, and rosé wines, with standout labels such as Cloe, Seis+Seis and Encaste.
If you’re looking for a more heritage-focused experience, Bodega Descalzos Viejos welcomes you in a former Trinitarian convent with original frescoes and views of the Tajo gorge. Their wines are elegant, limited-production reds. A tasting here is an encounter with history.
Enjoy a wine tasting at any of Ronda’s wineries!
Axarquía: sweet flavors among the mountains
The Axarquía region is famous for its moscatel wines. At Bodegas Bentomiz, modern architecture blends with the landscape to offer tastings paired with gourmet menus. They produce wines such as Ariyanas Naturalmente Dulce, an internationally acclaimed moscatel.
At Dimobe, a family-run winery in Moclinejo, you’ll enjoy an authentic experience surrounded by centuries-old vineyards and traditional drying racks. Their labels include Zumbral, Señorío de Broches, and fortified wines such as dry moscatel.
Western Coast: vineyards with a taste of the sea
The first stop is in Torremolinos, at Bodega Quitapenas, where more than 140 years of winemaking tradition translate into a wine tourism experience that combines heritage, flavor, and warmth. During their guided tastings, you can sample some of their most representative wines: from intense oxidatively aged Pedro Ximénez and fresh young or semi-sweet moscatels, to sparkling wines, reds, and whites with organic certification and denomination of origin.
In Manilva, the innovative proposal of Nilva Enoturismo allows you to taste wines with views of the Mediterranean Sea from the Peñoncillo vineyard. Their focus on dry moscatel grapes gives a saline touch that pairs perfectly with local cuisine. Their flagship wine is Nilva DO Sierras de Málaga.
Another nearby and surprising option is Escaramujo Wines in Estepona, where wines are aged under the sea, offering an unforgettable offshore tasting experience. Here, you can try wines like Escaramujo Blanco Submarino or Escaramujo Tinto.
Toast in the Costa del Sol: a journey of flavors and emotions
Taking part in a wine tasting in the Costa del Sol is much more than sipping a glass. It’s about connecting with the land, meeting those who care for the vines, and letting yourself be carried away by moving landscapes. From a vineyard by the sea to a tasting under the stars, each wine experience is a sensory luxury.
Remember that we have an enotourism ebook where you can find the full selection of wineries in the province.
