The estate and the wine |

César Márquez is no ordinary winemaker. Nephew of Raúl Pérez, he shares the same remarkable talent and instinct for blending terroirs and mastering vinification, crafting monumental wines of precision and finesse in Bierzo.
Working with century-old vines and carefully defined plots, he focuses relentlessly on freshness and altitude, guided by a deep understanding of aging—using stainless steel tanks, barrels, and demi-muids (500 to 600 liters) to perfect balance and expression.
A pure talent redefining the identity of these Spanish terroirs, his work has earned widespread acclaim—most notably from the Parker Guide, which praises him in glowing terms. |

Made from Godello, the 2023 Bierzo La Salvacion White comes from a hectare of century-old vines in the northernmost and coolest village of the appellation, situated at nearly 700 meters above sea level. Fermented in 500-liter barrels, it reveals floral notes and yellow fruits, set against a smooth texture with crisp fruit and a refreshing acidity that lingers. A true delight! Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee. |
