Capitan Fanegas is the personal project of Mario Ruiz-Clavijo from the historic Bodegas Marques de Arviza in Rioja. The philosophy behind the Capitan Fanegas wines is to make single vineyard expressions of Rioja that reflect and express the sites they come from. The wines are vinos de author; unique representations that are true to the Rioja style.

A blend of 70% Viura, 20% Malvasia and 10% Garnacha Blanca from two estate vineyards located at an elevation of 650 meters in La Unión: La Muela (old bush vines planted in 1964 on calcareous clay soil), and El Paleton (bush vines planted in 1997 on red clay soils with lot of pebbles).

Fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged in oak barrels for 6 months, followed by 4 months in concrete, resulting in layers of fresh and rich flavors.

Aromas of wild flowers, tropical fruits, and honeysuckle, with flavors of lemony apple, savory herbs and discrete oak spice. Pair with grilled tuna, lobster, and watching butterflies.
