MALAGA FOR WINE LOVERS
Shawn Hennessey shares her food and wine highlights
No longer ‘just an airport’, Málaga has reinvented itself as a world-class travel destination over the past decade. With the addition of several museums and art galleries, a revamped port and the rejuvenation of its charming old centre (now mostly pedestrianised), Málaga is the perfect city break if you’re looking for sun and sand in a vibrant, cosmopolitan setting.
The wine scene has also been changing and the once-prominent raisiny sweet wines from historic wineries have been joined by wines from a new generation of small producers who are reviving old vines, as well as introducing new grapes to the region.
There are five geographical sub-areas within the overlapping DO Málaga and DO Sierras de Málaga: Axarquía, Montes de Málaga, Costa Occidental-Manilva, Norte and Serranía de Ronda.
