Description

Dominio de Tares is situated in Bierzo, one of the most talked-about wine regions of Spain. Baltos is made from 100% old-vine Mencia with very low yields, aged in American and French oak for 6 months. It is an elegant and individualistic wine with a nose of earth, clove minerals and red and black cherry. The palate is beautifully textured, smooth, fresh, spicy and medium-bodied with a long, rounded finish. Baltos seems to find favour with fans of the Pinot Noir grape, expect all the flavour encased in a more dense wine, very enjoyable.

Dominio de Tares

Since 2000, Bodegas Dominio de Tares has been extracting the essence of the Mencía, Godello and Prieto Picudo grape varieties in the Bierzo DO and the Castile and León VT. These areas of north-western Spain have a long tradition of winemaking that has been recovered today to produce unique wines of globally recognised quality. Dominio de Tares became the leader of El Bierzo’s wine resurgence by recovering the best old vineyards and pioneering the production of wines for laying down.

Castilla Y Leon

Castilla y León, located in north-central Spain, is a prominent wine region known for its rich history and diverse wine offerings. It benefits from a continental climate with hot summers and cold winters, which, along with varied soil types, creates ideal conditions for viticulture.
The area is especially renowned for its robust reds, particularly those made from Tempranillo and Garnacha, which produce complex wines with rich fruit flavours and notable aging potential. It is also known for its whites, including those from Verdejo and Godello, offering fresh, aromatic profiles with crisp acidity.
Historically, Castilla y León has been a significant wine-producing area since ancient times, with a rich heritage that includes the renowned Ribera del Duero and Rueda DOs.
