About El Grifo Malvasía Colección Seco

In ancient mythology, the griffin was far more than a mythical creature: it symbolised the strength of the lion and the vision of the eagle, becoming the perfect guardian of treasures and sacred places. With this symbolism as inspiration, El Grifo, one of the oldest wineries in Spain, founded in 1775, adopted this mythical being as its emblem, and it could not be more fitting. Situated in the breathtaking volcanic landscape of Lanzarote, El Grifo embodies the protective spirit of the mythical griffin. Here, in a land forged by fire and ash, where vines defy adversity by growing in pits dug into volcanic rock, the winery is dedicated to safeguarding something as precious as wine.

Located in San Bartolomé, within the D.O. Lanzarote, El Grifo preserves pre-phylloxera vineyards, planted on volcanic sand soils and shielded by characteristic walls that protect the vines from the wind. Among its treasures is El Grifo Malvasía Colección Seco, a white wine crafted from the indigenous volcanic Malvasía variety. Harvested by hand in small 20 kg crates, the production process is a tribute to care and precision: from cooling the must to 12 °C to fermentation in stainless steel and its resting on fine lees before bottling.

Every sip of El Grifo Malvasía Colección Seco is an act of balance: strength and subtlety, earth and fire, tradition and modernity. A wine that not only tells the story of a centuries-old winery but also that of an island that has turned challenge into art. Indeed, just as the mythical griffin guarded sacred treasures, El Grifo continues to watch over the secrets of Lanzarote's volcanic land.
