From the open-air wine presses of the 18th century to today’s organic vineyard, the story of EL GRIFO is that of three families and twenty generations of winegrowers.

The current family has been key in keeping the project alive: they introduced the first stainless steel tanks in the Canary Islands, modernized the winemaking system, championed bottling, and preserved the old winery —now the Wine Museum— thanks to the advice of artist César Manrique, who also designed the current logo, the Griffin Bird.

We have incorporated systems for the recovery of CO₂ generated during fermentation, transforming waste into a resource, and we continue to improve water management, a crucial issue on an island with limited water resources.

In the winery, we develop new winemaking techniques designed to enhance the identity of our grapes, extend the longevity of our wines, and deepen their expression.

This approach combines the traditional knowledge accumulated over 250 years with the most advanced tools, in a constant pursuit of wines that are true reflections of their origin and their time.
