Grupo Marqués del Atrio, a respected name in Spanish winemaking, combines tradition and innovation to craft high-quality wines from some of Spain’s most renowned regions. With deep roots in Rioja, the winery produces elegant, terroir-driven Tempranillo-based wines that showcase rich fruit, balanced oak, and refined structure. Expanding beyond Rioja, Marqués del Atrio also works with vineyards in Navarra, Utiel-Requena, and Rueda, offering a diverse portfolio that includes expressive whites like Verdejo and bold Mediterranean reds. Committed to sustainability and modern winemaking techniques, the winery continues to honour Spain’s heritage while crafting wines that appeal to both classic and contemporary palates.

Watch as I speak with Rafael Ceballos Alcoba, Export Director, about the winery, wines from different appellations, plus one of their rosé wines at VanWineFest 2025.
