From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

A magnificent wine from Marques de Riscal. This isn't surprising, as virtually all Marques de Riscal wines are successful. However, there's something special about Marques de Riscal Finca Montico. This beautiful winery has a long tradition of being a true Rioja estate. In fact, it's the oldest Rioja estate still producing wines on a large scale. But Marques de Riscal wanted to go further and, in the mid-1970s, saw potential in an unspoiled corner of Spain. The estate purchased vineyards in the lesser-known Rueda, and the rest is history. Today, Rueda is a leader in Spanish white wines.

Perhaps the best Rueda has to offer. That's how our vinologists describe Marques de Riscal Finca Montico. Rueda is home to the Verdejo grape. A grape that was completely unknown 20 years ago, but has exploded in quality and popularity. It often creates fresh, invigorating, and accessible wines. However, Verdejo is exceptionally well-suited to aging. Marques de Riscal has applied this technique to Marques de Riscal Finca Montico, and the result is stunning. The grapes, sourced from the Montico vineyard, are first hand-picked. After a rigorous selection process—only the finest grapes make it into the final wine—the wine is aged for four months in steel silos. This gives this Spanish wine more flavor and character, something you're sure to fall in love with.

A balanced glass of Marques de Riscal wine. A top wine from the Rueda region. A white wine that never gets old. Just a few anecdotes from our vinologists about Marques de Riscal Finca Montico. A wine that's just right. Where every sip is a celebration. The aroma is sublime. You smell beautiful notes of grapefruit, anise, and refreshing acidity. Just smelling Marques de Riscal Finca Montico makes you thirsty. The taste is a complete package. Ripe and round. A tsunami of aromas like peach, apple, pear, citrus, and minerals greets you. You want another sip. And then another. There's only one drawback to Marques de Riscal Finca Montico: the bottle is gone quickly.
