DOMINIO DE CAIR
Perfection, dynamism and restlessness, these few words sum up the character of our family, “the Luis Cañas family”.
Fruit of the restless character of the winemaker, Juan Luis Cañas, we have produced Dominio de Cair, a new challenge which can be expressed in a single goal, to make great wines in an exceptional land, the Ribera del Duero region. A project which springs from a passion for the vineyard and is culminated by the creation of this wine cellar.
A land, Ribera del Duero, in which Juan Luis searched high and low until he found the vineyards he had dreamed of. Old vines, some over a hundred years’ old. Old vines, low in yield, but generous in character, giving their best in every cluster.
In our winery we have always believed that you need a great land to make a great wine. On this basis the Bodegas Dominio de Cair were set up in 2008. A modern cellar, with ultra-modern architecture, in which nothing has been left to chance, where every detail has been designed to provide what really matters, ideal conditions for creating wines of exceptional quality.
Wines which, in such a short period of time, have already won prizes at national and international level.
