Marqués de Cáceres Excellens
Founded in 1970 by Enrique Forner on his return to Spain after his family's exile to France, and former owner of a grand cru classé in the Haut-Médoc, Marqués de Cáceres today remains anchored in a high-end dynamic. Advised by several wine industry figures such as Professor Emile Peynaud at its creation and Michel Rolland today, the family firm has made the Rioja appellation one of the most prestigious in the world. It is within this framework that allowed it, in 2014, to launch its EXCELLENS collection of exclusive wines intended for selective distribution to restaurants, delicatessens and wine shops (Nicolas exclusivity), of which the Excellens Reserva is the spearhead. A selection in the Rioja Alta sub-region of 25 hectares of vineyard at altitude (between 500 and 600m) from 40 to 45 years old, made up of plots planted on hills with clayey-limestone, ferrous and gravelly soils, bathed by a temperate Atlantic climate.
