Located in Jumilla in the northeast of Murcia, the bodega was founded in 1948 by our grandfather Francisco who began by making wine at home in a modest winepress. The business was inherited by our father Paco Pacheco who then went on to expand the company which is now in our hands – the third generation. We uphold the family-run legacy with the same passion for wine as our forebears. The bodega has logically evolved as far as technology is concerned yet without losing respect for the family legacy and tradition. Our principal aim is to enhance the value of the wide range of wines available in Spain and especially in DO Jumilla, one of its oldest wine regions, paying homage to the viticulturists who tend the old vineyards with feeling and passion. We are making wines from the Monastrell grape variety that come from select plots which boast distinct soil types, orientation and altitudes with the aim of drawing attention to the hidden elegance and purity of our native grape variety. We have expanded our range of products to include our home grown extra virgin olive oil and roast almonds, which, together with our vineyard, form the three traditional “Trinity” crops of the high-plains of Murcia. We invite you to get to know us better and to become part of our history and the spectacular generational evolution that we are proud to belong to. We are a young, dynamic team that combines tradition and modernity by bringing to light everything we have learnt from past generations while at the same time contributing the most innovative and cutting-edge knowledge to the art of winemaking. One of the many stimulating experiences visitors can expect at Viña Elena is the chance to immerse themselves in the bodega’s history, facilities and winemaking techniques. Visitors also get the opportunity to taste the first grape musts, take a tour of our vineyards and taste our wines accompanied by the region’s traditional cuisine.
