I.The story · The Miras Family

A winery where everything is done by hand... and decided as a family.

We started in 2003, in a small facility in General Roca, convinced that a good wine is imagined long before it is planted. A decade later, growth took us to the old «Estepa» winery in Fernández Oro, still one of our production sites today.

In 2017 we added vineyards in Mainqué, planted in 1958: vines with history that in 2019 let us open our own winery. Every member of the family has a role: harvest, winemaking, ageing, bottling, marketing and sales. No intermediaries between what we feel and what we offer.

II. Philosophy · How we work

Nothing is rushed...nothing is improvised

We work with organic methods, respect the natural pace of each varietal and build every bottle with empathy for the person who chooses it. The detail is never minor: it is what makes the difference.

Sustainable ~

We prioritise biodiversity, water care and soil fertility. A conscious reduction in the use of chemical inputs.

Organic

Certified production that respects the grape's natural cycle, seeking authentic flavours with minimal intervention.

High quality

Every bottle goes through rigorous control, from grape selection to bottling. Nothing reaches your glass by chance.

Closeness

Every wine, every detail, every gesture is handled by someone in the family. No intermediaries between what we feel and what we offer.

III.Our wines · Four ranges

Four ranges, one same way of making them.

More than 24 labels made from classic and experimental varietals: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc, Trousseau, Torrontés, Pedro Ximénez, Semillón, Loca Blanca. Four families to discover Patagonia from different angles.

I. Jovem

Miras Jovem

Young, expressive wines with a focus on fruit. Pinot Noir as the range's hero, and an orange wine that breaks the obvious.

II. Fresh

Miras Livianos

Our newest range. Fruit-driven, vibrant acidity and great freshness. Low alcohol, made to be uncorked without delay.

III. Crianza

Miras Crianza

The passing of time in the glass. Age-worthy wines, a balance of fruit and oak, absolute respect for each varietal's timing.

IV. Icon

Familia Miras

Our icon range: small batches from selected 1958 vineyards. Organic wines that reflect the family's highest level of care.

Signature product · Limited edition

Orange Wine and other non-traditional styles

A white wine made like a red, with extended skin contact. Our most experimental gesture: an invitation to break with the obvious and discover a sensory profile unlike any other in Patagonia.

Definitivamente merecen un 100. Fue la mejor visita que tuvimos: muy enriquecedora, aprendimos muchísimo, recorrimos toda la finca, degustamos muchos vinos, todos excelentes. Nos encantó la calidad de personas y profesionales que encontramos. Definitivamente la recomendamos y volveremos cada vez que sea posible. Todo estuvo excelente.

Micaela Puppo December 2025

Fuimos a hacer la visita guiada con degustación de vinos y estuvo increíble. Marcelo y Andrés son unos excelentes anfitriones, recorrimos la finca mientras nos contaban de su historia y a la vez sobre la historia y producción de todo el Alto Valle. Fue una experiencia increíble, sin dudas vamos a volver.

Agostina Noccioli January 2026

Bodega Miras fue la sorpresa más grata de mi visita a Río Negro. El rescate de viñas viejas, su amplia variedad de vinos y las ideas de Marcelo y Pablo Miras me volaron la cabeza. Una visita muy recomendable que espero repetir pronto.
