✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Marqués de Cáceres was founded in 1970 by Enrique Forner, who revolutionized Rioja by bringing modern Bordeaux winemaking techniques—learned during his family's exile in France—back to his homeland with the help of legendary consultant Émile Peynaud. The Vendimia Seleccionada (Selected Harvest) is a vibrant testament to this legacy, showcasing the premium clay-limestone terroirs of Rioja Alta. Primarily crafted from Tempranillo with small additions of Garnacha and Graciano, this red wine undergoes careful temperature-controlled fermentation and is aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels. The result is a harmonious expression of bright red berries, subtle sweet spices, and a refined, velvety texture that honors the historic shift toward fruit-forward elegance in Spanish winemaking.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Marqués de Cáceres blev grundlagt i 1970 af Enrique Forner i Cenicero i Rioja Alta-delregionen og revolutionerede spansk vinfremstilling ved at forene århundreders Rioja-tradition med moderne Bordeaux-teknikker under vejledning af den legendariske ønolog Émile Peynaud. I dag ledes det familiedrevne vinhus af Enriques datter, Cristina Forner, som viderefører engagementet i terroir-drevet vinavl og elegant lagring på franske egetræsfade, samtidig med at huset har udvidet aktiviteterne ud over Rioja til prestigefyldte regioner som Rías Baixas og Rueda. Bodegaen er internationalt anerkendt for sine upåklageligt afbalancerede Crianza-, Reserva- og Gran Reserva-cuvéer, moderne prestigeaftapninger som Gaudium og MC samt nuancerede, fadgærede hvidvine som Antea.
