D.O.Ca. Rioja / Marqués de Altillo
Marqués de Altillo White
Marques de Altillo white is made from the Spanish traditional grape variety known as Macabeo in most of Spain and as Viura in Rioja, where it is by far the most commonly grown white wine grape. Our experienced oenologist team has created a wine that preserves the grape’s natural aromatic freshness.

Light yellow with golden hits, a well balanced aromas of fruit and floral tones. The palate is intense with a pleasing finish.

Technical Information
Harvested at night in early October, cooler temperatures allow the grapes to retain their wonderful aromatic character. Run juice is left for 4 – 6 hours to macerate at a cool temperature to get the most out of its aromas. The wine making process is carefully controlled at every stage. The result is a fresh and delicate wine.
