The Lanzarote Wines PDO adds new recognitions in the 40th edition of the Baco Awards, an event organized by the Spanish Union of Tasters and considered the longest-running competition in Spain dedicated to young wines.
In this edition, Bodega El Grifo has been awarded a Golden Baco for El Grifo, Rosado de Lágrima 2025. Likewise, Bodegas Martinón and Bodegas Rubicón have been recognized with a Silver Baco for their wines Martinón Blanco Seco 2025 and Rubicón Blanco Seco 2025, respectively.
"These recognitions highlight, once again, the excellent level of Lanzarote's young wines and the constant work of the wineries to maintain the quality, identity, and uniqueness of island viticulture. The combination of grape varieties adapted to the territory, the volcanic character of the soil, and the effort of winegrowers and winemakers continue to position the island's wines as benchmarks within the national scene," they comment from the Denomination of Origin.
The Baco Competition brings together a jury each year composed of sommeliers, specialized critics, journalists, and winemakers, responsible for evaluating the participating wines. Its trajectory and specialization in young wines make it a reference event for the Spanish wine sector.
Jorge Rodríguez, president of the Regulatory Council of the Lanzarote Wines PDO, has highlighted the importance of these awards for the denomination: “These recognitions, both the Golden Baco and the Silver Bacos, are a reward for the good work of our wineries and the quality of the wines born in a unique territory. We congratulate Bodega El Grifo, Bodegas Martinón, and Bodegas Rubicón for this achievement, which contributes to further strengthening the prestige of Lanzarote Wines.”
With these new recognitions, the Lanzarote Wines PDO continues to consolidate its presence in national competitions and reaffirm the value of a unique viticulture, marked by the landscape, tradition, and excellence of its productions.
