Winemaker
Luciano Murrieta, later Marquès de Murrieta, is not only the founder of the Bodegas that bear his name, but is also considered the founder of the modern wine trade in Rioja. Luciano Murrieta was born in 1822 in what was then the Spanish province of Peru. After Peru gained independence, he ended up in London. There, he was surprised by the popularity of Bordeaux wines and was inspired by this style of winemaking, which involved aging the wines for a period in wooden barrels.
