Tasting Note

Dominio de Calogia 2019 is a very intense cherry red, concentrated, almost opaque, with a purple rim, attractively vibrant and abundant-hued legs. Intense on the nose, with a marked varietal character in which the concentrated red fruit stands out. Very fine, barely perceptible wood and very well-defined balsamic undertones that give it fascinating complexity and subtlety.

Whole and vigorous on the palate. Fleshy and with nerve, very fresh. Excellent structure with great relief, although its tannins are of great quality, very fine and well developed, providing roundness, breadth and harmony on the palate. It is opulent, creamy, well-armed and with great potential. However, it has an elegance, finesse and balance that make it truly spectacular in that very long finish.

Background

Dominio de Calogia is the personal project of José Manuel Pérez Ovejas and his wife, Silvia Ortega, who was born in the spring of 2020. Conceived as a French domaine, an avant-garde design boutique winery, which appears surrounded by spectacular vineyards in an area unique between the municipalities of Roa and Pedrosa de Duero.

All the vineyards are owned by the winery and span a special terroir, Dominio de Calogia, a land that gives the winery its name and which defines the style of the wine from the start.

Authenticity and purity mark the style and philosophy of Dominio de Calogia, for this it is very important to know and understand the vineyard and look for low productions that give a high quality grape, but, above all, it is necessary to be yourself, faithful to his own style and completely impervious to influences or fashions of the moment. This is the only way to achieve a wine that transmits essence, depth.
