Description
Data of interest
Bodegas Tagonius is one of the leading wineries of the new wave of Madrid wines, creating modern-style wines with the incorporation of foreign varieties. It is located about 40 km southeast of Madrid, in the Arganda subzone, the largest of the three that make up the D.O. Vinos de Madrid; a region with great potential, whose wines were already consumed in the Royal Court in the 17th and 18th centuries.
Specifically, Tagonius is situated on the banks of the Tajuña River (Tagonius in Latin), a tributary of the Tagus. Its vineyards stretch across various plots of highly mineral-rich soils in the river valley. In total, it manages 25 hectares of its own vineyards and an additional 50 hectares of controlled vineyards, where the tempranillo grape coexists with international varieties such as syrah, merlot, and cabernet sauvignon. It also cultivates the white varieties malvar and moscatel de grano menudo.
The grapes are processed in modern facilities built in the year 2000 on the same site as the old Justo del Pozo Olmeda winery, dating back to the 19th century. In its large barrel room, French and American oak from the best cooperages coexist.
