Marques de Vargas

Rioja reds from Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Mazuelo with prestige critic recognition.

Marqués de Vargas produces wines from Rioja, Spain's most celebrated red wine region. The winery's portfolio centers on blends of Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Mazuelo—the classic trio of Rioja. Hacienda Pradolagar, the flagship, marries these varieties into a wine that has drawn attention from Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, and Wine Advocate. The Selección Privada and Reserva follow similar varietal architecture, each reflecting the mineral precision and structured tannins that define serious Rioja. These are wines built on the region's volcanic soils and continental climate, where Tempranillo develops its characteristic balance of dark fruit, acidity, and aging potential. Marqués de Vargas works within Rioja's traditional framework—no shortcuts, no novelty—letting the grapes and terroir speak.
