Marqués de Velilla winery is located in La Horra (Burgos), an area whose winemaking tradition dates back to pre-Roman times and which enjoys great prestige today. Núa Crianza 2020, exclusive to Vinoselección, is a delicious single-varietal Tempranillo aged for 12 months in new French and American oak barrels, followed by a further 12 months of bottle ageing.
Founded in 1985 by the Hernández de Mercado family from Segovia, Marqués de Velilla is located in La Horra (Burgos) and owns one of the most spectacular estates in the very heart of Ribera del Duero: Monte Villalobón. On a hilltop, overlooking the vineyard, stands the winery, integrated into the landscape. Marqués de Velilla's philosophy focuses on giving the utmost care to the vineyard and making wines that reflect the ‘terroir’.
Núa is a wine we discovered during one of our visits to the winery in 2003. We were looking for a red wine which, we had been told, stood apart from the winery's traditional style. When we tasted it, we liked it so much that we bought the entire batch and decided to call it “nua”, which means “naked” in Portuguese, a name that suited this red wine, in which Tempranillo naturally achieved the balance of the wines we like best. The rest is history at the Club, because more than 20 years have passed and this Ribera del Duero has already become one of Vinoselección's best-selling wines.
The red wine Núa Crianza 2020 (D.O. Ribera del Duero) pairs wonderfully with grilled secreto ibérico or patatas revolconas with torreznos.
Founded in 1985 by the Hernández de Mercado family from Segovia, Marqués de Velilla boasts one of the most spectacular estates in Ribera del Duero, Monte Villalobón. A property located at the heart of what is considered by many experts to be the best area of the appellation: the triangle formed by Roa, Anguix, and La Horra (Burgos).
On a hill, overlooking the vineyard, stands the winery, perfectly integrated into the landscape, whose philosophy focuses on vineyard care, respect for the terroir, and reverence for the grape, which is meticulously tended from its birth to its transformation into wine.
