DOMINIO DE TARES
Deliciously lyrical, Dominio de Tares say their wines are of ‘great equilibrium’ and ‘cradled in noble woods.’ Internationally recognised as responsible for putting the once moribund region of Bierzo back on the map, they’re just over a decade old; an infant in Spanish wine terms, but they are giants in their approach, using ancient vineyards and painstakingly artisan-like practices to bring to bear Bierzo expressions as pure and characterful as can be coaxed from the multiple microclimates in which they operate.
With a fierce focus on improving vintage by vintage, and harnessing some of the best oenological minds in Spain, they are a benchmark winery for their practices and, of course, for their delicious output.
