Johnatan García of Suertes Del Marqués is a winemaker who never loses the sight of the tradition. The use of native yeasts is a key factor in his wine-making process. Both stainless steel and concrete tanks are utilized in the winery while ageing in Burgundy barrels and larger format foudre is part of the elaboration process. This combined with the personality of the plot where the grapes are grown imbues his wines with unique identity and character.

The estate “El Esquilón”, is located in the area known as “Las Suertes” in the mid - region of La Orotava Valley. It is a 9 ha. vineyard consisting of 21 plots, rising in altitude from 350 to 700 meters above the sea level. The vineyards are mostly composed of old, ungrafted vines of black and white Listan grapes, which coexist with other native varietals. A unique method of vine training called “Trenzado” (multiple cordon) is traditionally used.
