Aurum Red

The world's most expensive wine hails from Spain, specifically from the renowned Aurum Red winery located in Las Pedroneras, Cuenca. This exceptional wine can fetch up to 25,000 euros per bottle.

Aurum Red is the culmination of the dream and dedicated efforts of Hilario Garcia, a third-generation winemaker. Garcia employs unique techniques, such as ozone treatment of the vineyards, to achieve the highest quality grapes.

Key Features of Aurum Red:

  • Unique Production Process: The ozone treatment of the vineyards enhances the grapes' nutrient absorption, significantly improving their quality.
  • Exclusivity: The winery produces only 300 bottles annually, with just 150 available for sale.
  • Price Range: Aurum Red White 2016 is priced at around 100 euros, while the exclusive Aurum Red Gold can reach up to 25,000 euros per bottle.

Each bottle of Aurum Red Gold is adorned with an 18-carat gold medal and offers a unique taste experience that varies with the direction in which the glass is swirled. This extraordinary wine has already gained popularity among connoisseurs in Japan, China, and the United States.
