The Tenerife Wine House receives a Solete Repsol for its role as a showcase of island wine, local product and wine culture
The Tenerife Wine House, in El Sauzal, has been distinguished with a Solete from the Repsol Guide, a recognition that indicates establishments with their own identity, authenticity and a close experience linked to the territory.
The distinction comes within the category of Bodegas, Wine bars and cocktail bars and recognizes the value of this space as a meeting point for wine, heritage, local product and dissemination. It is not just a place to try island wines, but of an enclosure that helps explain the wine history of Tenerife and its relationship with the landscape, agriculture and gastronomy.
Located in the Hacienda de San Simón, the House of Wine brings together several layers of interest: museo, tasting space, showcase of Tenerife wines and place to promote local agri-food products. This set is precisely one of the aspects that the Repsol Guide has valued., by highlighting the comprehensive experience that the venue offers.
Vino, heritage and local product
The recognition also puts the focus on the work of the Tenerife Rural Canarian Foundation, responsible for promoting and preserving this project as a reference space for Tenerife wines and for producers linked to the primary sector.
The advisor of the Primary Sector of the Cabildo of Tenerife and president of the Foundation, Valentín González, has valued the Solete as a support for the work carried out over the years to consolidate the Casa del Vino as one of the main wine tourism attractions on the island..
González emphasizes that the distinction helps to reinforce its positioning as a dissemination center, promotion and conservation of Tenerife wine culture. It also highlights the effort of the human team that supports a project where asset management coexists., visitor service, wine promotion and support for local products.
A showcase for Tenerife wines
The Wine House fulfills a particularly relevant function on an island marked by great wine diversity.. Tenerife has territories, varieties, very different altitudes and styles, and spaces like this allow us to organize that story for the visitor and also bring it closer to the local consumer..
The possibility of tasting a wide selection of wines from the island, accompanied by Tenerife agri-food products, turns the visit into an experience that goes beyond the tasting. There is learning, memory, landscape and a gastronomic reading of the territory.
The Repsol Guide Solete thus comes as a sign of recognition to a space that has managed to preserve its heritage dimension without giving up being a living place.. The Wine House does not function solely as a museum or as a tasting room: acts as a bridge between wineries, producers, visitors and rural culture.
A recognition with insular reading
The distinction has a reading that surpasses the specific award. At a time when wine tourism is gaining weight within the gastronomic and tourist offer of the Canary Islands, The Casa del Vino de Tenerife reinforces its role as one of the essential stops to understand the wine identity of the island.
The Solete recognizes a simple experience in appearance, but full of meaning: know the history of cultivation, visit a hacienda with heritage value, try local wines and discover products that are part of the Tenerife pantry.
Tenerife thus adds a new argument to defend its wine culture not only from the quality of its wineries., but also from the spaces that explain it, They preserve it and bring it closer to the public.
