Marqués de Riscal Sauvignon White Wine

The Marqués de Riscal Sauvignon White Wine from Bodegas Marqués de Riscal presents this white wine from the D.

EITHER.

Rueda, made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grape varieties.

The French variety Sauvignon Blanc was introduced by Marqués de Riscal in Rueda in 1974 and today the winery has 70 hectares of vineyards owned with an average age of over 25 years.

It is currently part of the varieties authorized by the Rueda Designation of Origin thanks to its great adaptability to the terrain and its ability to produce white wines with great aromatic intensity, good acid balance and minerality.

Marqués de Riscal Sauvignon Blanc is a 100% organic wine made with minimal intervention and with total respect for the environment and the ecosystem that surrounds us.

Its fresh image represents a wine born from the land, from the roots, a sustainable and quality wine.

Production: After a period of cold maceration and after the extraction and clarification of the must, the slow fermentation is carried out at a controlled temperature of between 13ºC and 15ºC, to protect the primary aromas so peculiar to this variety.

Once fermentation is complete, the wine remains in contact with its fine lees, with the intention of increasing the sensation of volume in the mouth and improving its aging capacity.

Optimal serving temperature: Between 8 and 10ºC.

The history of Bodegas Marqués de Riscal is the story of an innovative, pioneering company and a benchmark in a wine sector in continuous transformation.

The winery was founded in 1858 by Guillermo Hurtado de Amézaga.

In 1862 their first wines were bottled, thus becoming the oldest bottled wines in Rioja.

A few years after its founding, the winery quickly began to win numerous awards, but one of the most important came in 1895, when Marqués de Riscal became the first non-French wine to receive the Diploma of Honor from the Bordeaux Exhibition.

In 1972 Marqués de Riscal began the production of the first white wines from Rueda and, in recent years, the winery has dared to incorporate two new designations into the project, V.

Gehry.
