It runs through the municipalities of Algarrobo, Sayalonga, Cómpeta, Canillas de Albaida, Torrox, Nerja and Frigiliana. The route offers the opportunity to visit wineries and taste wines. The winemaking process, despite the years and the advance of technology, is still traditional: after the grapes are harvested, the grapes are crushed and the selected musts are stored in barrels.
