Bodegas Franco-Españolas

Rioja producer of structured reds and distinctive white reserves.

Bodegas Franco-Españolas produces wines from Rioja, Spain's most prestigious red wine region. The winery's portfolio centers on traditional Rioja varieties: Tempranillo, Garnacha, Graciano, and Mazuelo for reds, alongside white grapes including Viura, Garnacha Blanca, and Malvasia. The Excelso Gran Reserva, a Mazuelo-Tempranillo-Graciano blend, represents the house's approach to age-worthy reds with structure and complexity. Royal Reserva pairs Tempranillo and Garnacha in a more accessible expression. The Viña Soledad Tête de Cuvée Reserva, a white blend of Garnacha Blanca, Malvasia, and Viura, demonstrates the winery's range beyond red wine. These wines have been assessed by leading international critics including Decanter, Wine Spectator, Falstaff, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Advocate.
