The jury's decision for the XI 'La manzana reineta de Tenerife' Photography Contest was made public on Saturday, October 31, 2026, in El Sauzal. The competition, created to promote this product cultivated in the Acentejo region, particularly in Ravelo and El Sauzal, awarded the best photographs in two categories: for authors aged 14-18 and for those over 18.
The jury, composed of Luis Ravina Pisaca (Agricultural Technician and Enologist), Yaiza Lorena Díaz Pérez (Art History Graduate), and Rafel Goya Ravelo (Graphic Arts Technician), with the councilor for the Primary Sector of the El Sauzal City Council, Francisco Hernández Suárez, acting as secretary, evaluated creativity, originality, conceptual coherence, technical quality, and adherence to the contest's theme.
In the category for authors under 18, both the second and first prizes remained unclaimed. In the category for authors over 18, the second prize went to Juan Ramón Álvarez Pérez for his photograph titled “La vida en estado puro” (Life in its purest state), and the first prize was awarded to María Fuerte Armas for her work “Al son de las isas, folías y malagueñas, canto yo la reineta” (To the sound of isas, folías, and malagueñas, I sing the reineta).
Both the jury and the Association of Reineta Apple Producers of Tenerife, along with the Illustrious City Council of El Sauzal, highlighted the high participation, creativity, and quality of the submitted photographs, encouraging the continuation of the contest in future editions.
