In 1970, Enrique Forner founded Marqués de Cáceres, Unión Vitivinícola, S.A., a historic Alliance between a region (Cenicero, La Rioja Alta), an enterprising family, the best vine growers and vineyards in La Rioja, and a Bordeaux concept which revolutionised the production and business model. Enrique had one objective - to obtain the best wines. This obsession continues to be the leitmotiv of Cristina Forner, the third generation of this wine family.

This wine is the result of the best Tinta del Pais grapes from the finest areas of the estate in Ribera del Duero. Full expression of color in an intense, dark and mature wine. Immense initial power softened by ageing in the best oak and the long refinement in bottle, resulting in an elegant, vibrant, smooth and well-structured red wine. In the mouth creamy, elegant, ambitious and, above all, pleasurable. Enjoy now and very suitable for ageing over the next 10 years.
