About us

It is the trunk of Spanish roots that has prevailed. For three generations, it devoted itself to the cultivation of the land, which gave way to the magnificent union that exists between mankind and the fruit of the land.

In the 80´s, Gabriel and Mónica, together with their five children, decided to carry on with the family tradition of obtaining the best from the land. This way, in 2005, they gave birth to an old desire to pour the great effort made in the vineyard into the bottle of wine.

Today, Blanco Family set its heart on producing its wine lines, focusing on the development from the very beginning of the cultivation process to each and every stage of winemaking.
The challenge is to translate the family’s enthusiasm, effort and talent into special wines that not only satisfy the most demanding palates but also reach high standards of quality worldwide and combine tradition with innovation.
