The Excellens range by Marqués de Cáceres offers the most gourmet style of wines from the iconic winery: high altitude vineyards, singular vinifications as well as limited editions. These wines attain their greatest potential alongside the finest restaurants. Distinctiveness, singularity and utmost concentration from the terroir characterise their identity.
The new vintages of Excellens Cuvee Especial 2019, Verdejo and Sauvignon Blanc 2022 were launched by Marqués de Cáceres and are in a new burgundy style bottle with subtle restyling giving them a more appealing, updated image. With the Rosé and the rest of the range, these wines exemplify both elegance and finesse, and are highly desirable for national and international wine enthusiasts.
Our Excellens range was launched as a unique and exclusive concept for the on-trade and specialist wine shops. These are the outcome of the passion, talent and enthusiasm displayed amongst our team of young winemakers, who are currently at the forefront of winemaking and are committed to providing a specific understanding of each plot of land in order to create a unique and individual style.
This year during the 28th edition of the International Flamenco Fashion Week (SIMOF) held in Seville from 26th to 29th January, the remodelled image of Excellens was presented for the first time. Undoubtedly, the new design of Excellens showcases the latest flamenco fashion tendencies. A spectacular event that once again this year, was sponsored by the prestigious winery Bodegas Marqués de Cáceres, combining forces with the flamenco fashion industry to celebrate art, talent, design and exclusivity. Similar connotations with our wines, based on craftsmanship, creativity and the nobleness of raw materials that highlight all their expression.
A 10 year union between Marqués de Cáceres and SIMOF
The collaboration between Marqués de Cáceres and the International Flamenco Fashion Week dates back to 2012. During this relationship, Cristina Forner, the current President of Marqués de Cáceres, who is truly enamoured with the world of flamenco, plays a very special part. In fact, so much so that, every year, she doesn’t miss any of the catwalk shows held at this event. It was her idea to combine both her passion for wine and fashion. She believes that the values transmitted at SIMOF, authenticity, talent, effort and dedication, amongst others, are closely linked to the way she feels about her wines.
Thanks to this understanding, the prestigious world-famous wine brand launched its first Limited Edition SIMOF red wine, Generación MC, incorporating the distinctive styles of Southern Spain to its label. It now features a Limited Edition SIMOF Excellens Reserva.
MiAbril, the prestigious flamenco brand, with the help of their designers Lourdes Montes and Rocío Terry, inspired the new Excellens Reserva Limited Edition SIMOF label, designed by Juanjo Montoya and Virginia Vargas, turning the bottle into a collector’s item
Therefore, Marqués de Cáceres delights us with stunning designs reflecting this international event dedicated to Fashion. Similarly to the flamenco fashion runway presentations at SIMOF 2023, Excellens by Marques de Caceres, exhibits its wine collection led by the SIMOF Limited Edition.

They are elegantly laced with oak to provide subtle flavours with refined complexity. On the palate, generous, full-bodied and balanced, with silky tannins that are pleasant on the palate. It’s long finish is proof of the quality of carefully selected plots found at high altitude and the careful vinification of the Tempranillo grapes.
