The Cellar, Marqués de Vargas, from Rioja Alta, is exceptional.

It was in 1840 when Felipe de Mata, the eighth Marqués de Vargas, planted the first vines in the outskirts of Logroño.

Especially memorable was Hilario de la Mata, the father of the current Marqués de Vargas, who for years presided over one of the most emblematic wineries in Rioja.

In 1989, Pelayo de la Mata, the current Marqués de Vargas, realized his father’s dream by building a winery on the Estate Hacienda Pradolagar in Logroño.

Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Baja. Rioja Alta is expanded over 19.000 Ha. of vineyards. Our winery is located in Rioja Alta, to the east of Logroño, where the Tempranillo grape is the most noteworthy.

The region enjoys an extreme Atlantic continental climate and the vineyards extend over calcareous-clayey soils. The wines that are made in this region are balanced red wines, especially recommended for barrel ageing, full-bodied and high acidity.

The spring was then pleasantly mild with low rainfall what helped to an adequate flowering period. Warm and dry summer, at the end of the growing season, enabled the fruit to reach a perfect ripening with grapes retaining good acidity & grade and being harvested in outstanding sanitary conditions.Tasting notesA complex nose reflects the intensity of ripe stone fruit as peach, apricot and loquat together with subtle floral hues and balsamic notes. The quality of this wine is completed with full, meaty and velvety flavour, great structure and long, lingering finish.Serving suggestionsIdeal temperature of consumption between 10-12ºCFood matchingSmoked salmon, Pasta Salad, Foie gras, Lobster Risotto or Shellfish Paella.
