Miguel Merino

Miguel Merino is a boutique, family-run winery that has quickly gained recognition as one of Rioja’s most exciting producers. Founded in 1994 in the historic village of Briones, the estate specializes in crafting small-batch, terroir-driven wines from old-vine Tempranillo. With a deep respect for tradition and a modern, precise approach to winemaking, Miguel Merino’s wines stand out for their elegance, complexity, and aging potential.
From the flagship Miguel Merino Gran Reserva, with its depth and structure, to the vibrant and fruit-forward Miguel Merino Reserva, the wines beautifully express the nuances of Rioja Alta. By focusing on sustainable vineyard practices and low-intervention winemaking, the estate continues to produce some of the region’s most compelling and sought-after wines.
