Familia Millán is a family winery founded by José Jesús Millán in Mendoza, Argentina, over fifty years ago with vineyards originating in 1922. José Junior runs the estate now, in the land where he was raised, surrounded by the beautiful landscape of Mendoza with the Andes mountains, vineyards and of course the world renown Malbec. Abrasado is a play on words that combines "asado", meaning both to grill meat and also to spend time with friends, with "abrazado" which means to embrace. Thus, the Abrasado wines are meant to bring together cherished friends with a fabulous meal.
