About

Milénico is a family winery producing artisan and organic and vegan wines in the Spanish region of Ribera del Duero.

Previous generations of our family implanted in the Ribera del Duero have cultivated the vineyard and have produced and sold wine and wine spirits before and after the arrival of phylloxera in our area at the beginning of the 20th century. The last two generations expanded the area of vineyards and in 2012, two brothers of the family decided to make the leap to the elaboration of wines for commercialization always starting from our own grapes and under organic farming practices. The vineyards, owned by the family, were planted in the 1990s and today cover 20 hectares in 15 plots, most of them located on the slopes bordering the Duero between Roa and Peñafiel.

Vineyards are south-facing slopes, a mixture of clay with a high limestone and sand content, very heterogeneous and loose, ideal for vines. Due to its location halfway between the valley and the moors, the vines enjoy natural ventilation, which, together with perfect sunshine conditions, allows for excellent ripening year after year, with grapes that naturally, with the least intervention, arrive healthy at harvest time.

Our vineyards follow organic practices. We minimize the tillage and maintain organic cover when rainfall allows. We do not use herbicides, pesticides or chemical fertilizers, which allows the vineyard to be surrounded by a more complex natural environment, alive, stronger and healthier in a natural way.

The winery, founded in 2012, specializes in the elaboration of a very limited series of wines. Every year we release four references, Milénico Valdepila, Dos Mundos and Mediterránico, all Tempranillo Tinto Fino wines, with different ageing in French oak in between none, one and two years. These are Young, Crianza, Reserva and Gran Reserva type of wines, made in an artisanal way, under organic farming practices.

The total production is limited to 25.000 bottles per year.

All our wines have been consistently been rated above 90+ in the last years Spanish national and international critics to recognise our wine-making style.

We are interested in customers who appreciate and are interested in an exclusive and organic artisan product handmade with dedication, enthusiasm and attention to detail, resulting in a constant and close relationship between the vineyard and the people of the family who take care of it.
