- Los Bermejos is on the easternmost island of Lanzarote, owned and operated by Ignacio Valdera
- A volcanic explosion that lasted from 1730-1736 covered the entire island in lava and ash 3-5 meters deep. Consequently, each vine must be planted in a hole or hoyo that breaks through that infertile volcanic crust of petrified lava to the organic matter that can nourish it.
- All vineyard work is done by hand; some of the wines are certified organic, depending on the vintage – Ignacio supplements his crop with purchased fruit from growers who share his vision of sustainable viticulture
- 100% Malvasia Volcanica – a hybrid created on Lanzarote
- Aged for 9 months sur lie, zero dosage
- Dry, Champagne like texture with a sweet fruit nose that is hidden behind a fiery core
