The Story
A wine made from Caladoc Ull de llebre and Merlot from the 11 parcels we have at Can Milà de la Roca, in Lavern. It is an elegant wine, fresh but with character; a wine to be enjoyed now, or kept to observe how well it ages. The name Milana is taken from the estate where these four varieties are grown: Mr Mila's wife, who used to farm these vineyards was popularly known as "La Milana".
