Marqués de Riscal

Vinos de los Herederos del Marqués de Riscal has always been a pioneering company and a benchmark in the wine sector.

Marqués de Riscal markets its products in more than 80 countries and its wines enjoy the highest international distinctions, as well as numerous awards and mentions in the specialized press.

In the 21st century, Herederos del Marqués de Riscal continues writing its history with the development of the “City of Wine”, a project that marks a before and after in the way of understanding the world of wine. The wineries of Elciego (Álava) are the best museum in which to contemplate the living history of Vinos de los Herederos del Marqués de Riscal.

The first winery began to be built in 1858. Inside these facilities, today used for aging wine in barrels, is La Catedral, a bottle rack in which Marqués de Riscal keeps his best treasure, a unique collection composed by bottles of all vintages produced since 1862.

The increase in wine production meant that in 1883 the facilities of this winery had to be expanded, a fact that would be repeated in 1968 and 2000.
