Málaga produced fortified and sweet wines for centuries; phylloxera and market shifts reduced volumes, but recent boutique producers have revived terraced viticulture in the hills above Mijas.
Conservation
The region stresses dry-farming and terrace maintenance to protect soils and conserve water; low-intervention vineyards here support biodiversity and sustainable tourism.
