About César Márquez Sufreiral

In 2015, a restless and talented young man decided that he didn't just want to make wine, but to tell stories through each bottle. His name is César Márquez, and before embarking on his own journey, he spent years learning at his uncle's winery, the renowned Raúl Pérez, where together they established "La Vizcaína" in Bierzo. There, he immersed himself in tradition, hard work, and respect for the land. Later, with just a few years on his own, César set a clear goal: to represent a place, a village, or even a specific plot, with minimal intervention and the spirit of yesteryear. It is not merely wine; it is bottled identity.

His creation Sufreiral is perhaps the purest expression of that philosophy. It originates from century-old vineyards planted on limestone soils at an altitude of 620 metres in a small plot of just 0.3 hectares. It is crafted with mencía, alicante bouschet, and a small proportion of white grapes. The entire process is carried out in an artisanal manner. The harvest is manual, and in the winery, spontaneous fermentation occurs in 1,000-litre vessels with 25% whole grapes gently crushed by foot and a maceration period of 60 days. After bleeding and pressing, the wine is allowed to settle for 7 days, maximally respecting the character of the fruit.

The result is a red wine with a Burgundian profile that captivates with its freshness, elegance, and depth. César Márquez Sufreiral is the introduction of a young talent who is crafting his own legend in the heart of Bierzo.
